One night in January 2026, we went out to vandalize some places in the city of Xalapa, Veracruz, joining the solidarity mobilization for the imprisoned anarchist Arturo Lugo “Sheveck”, in a new repressive action by the 4T [Fourth Transformation] and the UNAM [University of Mexico] against the anarchist movement*. Let us fight repression with the strength of our solidarity. Arm your group!
Let’s take anarchic and subversive memory to the streets and into combat!
For the freedom of Arturo Sheveck!
With the burning memory of Yorch Punk, Chava Olmos, Nadia Vera and everyone who died in the struggle against all forms of Power in any corner of the Earth!
Death to the State and Capital!

* Translator’s note: The arrest of Arturo Lugo Macías, alias Sheveck, on January 8th reveals a pattern of institutional violence used to silence protest and political activity at the National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM). The activist, who was the victim of a paramilitary attack in 2020 inside the Faculty of Higher Studies (FES)-Acatlán, is being revictimized almost six years later with the accusation of the same events in which he suffered third-degree burns.
In the early morning of April 5, 2020, a planned act of terror was carried out. As the Covid-19 pandemic began to paralyze the country, at the FES-Acatlán campus of the National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM), a group of about 10 men, wearing tactical gear, balaclavas, bulletproof vests, and carrying pipes, sticks, gasoline, a pickaxe, and firearms, launched a brutal attack against students who were peacefully occupying two spaces.
The objectives were clear: to repress, punish, demobilize, and disorganize. First, they stormed Kubo 906, an anarchist space, where they savagely beat student Adán Fernández Sánchez, fracturing his jaw, and sexually assaulted a female classmate. Then they went to building 6, occupied by the feminist collective Argüenderas y Revoltosas, which was demanding protocols against gender violence.
They doused the door with gasoline and set it on fire. Arturo Lugo Macías, in solidarity with the activists, tried to extinguish the flames from inside and was doused with the fuel himself, suffering third-degree burns. The attackers stormed in, beat those present, and sexually assaulted several women. As they brutalized the students, they shouted, “…That’s why we rape and kill them, for being sluts .”
