Prison transfers and updated addresses for the arrested Italian anarchists

Posted on 2026/06/29 by darknights

Here we share the current addresses of the Italian comrades from the last operation. It is importsant to note the solidarity account for donations and also because these are “fixed” directions of high security prisons where the comrades are supposed to spend their pre-trial detention.

Update 28/06:

Yesterday, June 27th, Stefano and Toni were transferred.

We share updated addresses:

Stefano Marri
Pietro Rosetti

Terni Central Prison
Strada delle Campore 32

Francesco Benedetti

Rossano Central Prison
Contrada Ciminata Greco 1

Greece: Update on the transfers of the comrades charged in connection with the bank expropriation in Kato Tithorea

Posted on 2026/06/24 - 2026/06/24 by darknights

Update on the transfers of the comrades charged in connection with the bank expropriation in Kato Tithorea

Following the interrogation on Friday, May 15, before the investigating judge and the subsequent decision to order pretrial detention for six suspects, the comrade subject to this measure was taken to the Western Attica Criminal Investigation Department in Ano Liosia, while the other five suspects were transferred to GADA. On Monday, May 18, the comrade was transferred to the Korydallos women’s prison; the following day, Tuesday, May 19, one of the five comrades was transferred to the Korydallos men’s prison. Three days later, on May 22, three more comrades were transferred to the prisons in Trikala, Larissa, and Malandrino, respectively. This morning, May 26, the last comrade was transferred to the prison in Nafplio, after more than two weeks of detention at GADA.

The vindictive—yet predictable—scattering of our comrades across prisons throughout Greece, with the intent of limiting their communication and psychologically breaking them, comes as no surprise to us; after all, we are well acquainted with the mechanisms of the State and its collaborators.

“We do not fight for the liberation of political prisoners out of charity or humanitarianism. Through the struggle for their liberation, we reclaim the hidden history and the experience of the struggle. But above all, we reclaim the concept of the political legitimacy of counter-violence.” (Action Directe Prisoners’ Collective)

Fort Worth, Texas, U$A: Eight Federal Prairieland Defendants Sentenced Today to Prison Terms Ranging From 30-100 Years for Common Protest Activity

Posted on 2026/06/24 - 2026/06/25 by darknights

FORT WORTH, TX – Eight Prairieland defendants were sentenced in federal court today, three months after their convictions on a variety of federal charges, including riot, material support for terrorists, attempted murder, possession and conspiracy to use explosives, and conspiracy to conceal documents. Family members and supporters, who sat stunned as US District Judges Mark Pittman and Reed O’Connor delivered sentences ranging from 40-100 years in prison, called the punishment cruel, callous and starkly disproportionate to the defendants’ actions. In a rally and press conference held after the sentencing, supporters expressed defiance and vowed to continue fighting for the Prairieland defendants’ freedom.

The eight Prairieland defendants sentenced today are Savanna Batten, Zachary Evetts, Autumn Hill, Meagan Morris, Maricela Rueda, Daniel Rolando Sanchez Estrada, Benjamin Hanil Song, and Elizabeth Soto. All defendants, with the exception of Sanchez Estrada were convicted of rioting, providing material support to terrorists, conspiracy to use an explosive, and use of an explosive device, which referred to the consumer grade fireworks used on July 4. Sanchez Estrada was convicted of concealing a document—political literature—and, along with Rueda, conspiracy to conceal documents. Song was additionally convicted of attempted murder of an officer and discharging a firearm in furtherance of a crime.

Update Tahanan Anarkis May Day Bandung 2026 / Freedom for Mpe and the Mayday defendants (Indonesia)

Posted on 2026/05/28 by darknights

One of the detainees arrested during the May Day 2026 protests in Bandung, RR alias Mpe, who was previously accused of being the “leader of an anarchist group,” has now been charged by the police under terrorism laws. He has also reportedly been placed in isolation and denied access to legal counsel of his own choosing, raising serious concerns over the violation of a suspect’s right to provide testimony freely and without coercion, intimidation, or pressure.

In this case, the police appear to be employing the same narrative pattern used during last August’s unrest: identifying a supposed “mastermind,” “leader,” or individual believed to have planned and orchestrated the riots. Law enforcement authorities maintain that prosecuting those considered to be the driving force behind unrest can prevent similar incidents from recurring in the future. In practice, however, such an approach has often functioned as an authoritarian mechanism for criminalizing groups deemed disruptive to political stability, while simultaneously diverting public attention away from structural grievances and redirecting it toward specific individuals.

Trial statement by comrade Daniela Klette, accused of bank robberies and membership of Red Army Faction (Germany)

Posted on 2026/05/20 by darknights



Daniela is on trial for a specific period in the history of the Red Army Faction (RAF), which disbanded in 1998. She is alleged to have participated in two RAF actions: the shelling of the US embassy in Bonn in February 1991 in protest against the illegal invasion of Iraq by the US military, the attack on the still-unfinished Weiterstadt prison in March 1993, and the attempted attack by a combat unit on a Deutsche Bank computer center in Eschborn in February 1990. Daniela lived underground for well over 30 years before her arrest in Berlin at the end of February 2024. Membership in the RAF is subject to a 25-year statute of limitations.


Daniela’s Plea

Now this first lengthy trial against me is coming to an end. During the course of the proceedings, the assessment that existed from the beginning has been confirmed, and it has become abundantly clear: the investigation and the proceedings are politically motivated. The aim here is to enforce domination and subjugation at all costs. The prosecution underscored this once again in its closing arguments. It’s not about individual acts, and not so much about me, but about delegitimizing a history of radical left-wing resistance and punishing it with deterrent force.

June 11 2026: Solidarity Without End

Posted on 2026/05/16 by darknights

This year as we are marking the International Day of Solidarity with Marius Mason and All Long-Term Anarchist Prisoners we are thinking about the nature of solidarity as ever-changing and never-ending. Our solidarity is not just for those who are imprisoned, but for all those who are harassed, intimidated, deported, hunted, on the run, tortured, and even killed — not just for individuals but for the struggles they are a part of. Just as repression ebbs and flows and state tactics adapt, transform, and innovate, so must our practice of active solidarity. We must adapt to the changing terrain and needs of our movements.

Solidarity does not end when trial ends and a verdict is reached, when a hunger strike has gotten its demands met, or even when somebody is released from custody back into the arms of their family and friends. The consequences of state repression last long beyond big moments and media attention. Whenever one cycle of struggle winds down as the target of the state, another will take its place. Whenever one comrade is released from prison, another will be taken in. Our support must continue to ripple out beyond our friends and immediate networks. It must extend beyond the borders of states into all lands and territories where people are fighting. It must expand beyond the present moment, honoring comrades of the past and thinking of what legacy we will leave for those who come after us.

Text of the 8 arrested comrades/comrades in the May 11 case + Soli-demo call-out (Greece)

Posted on 2026/05/13 - 2026/05/13 by darknights

In the early hours of May 11, 2026, a group of comrades expropriated a bank in Kato Tithorea. Approximately 5 hours later, 5 of them were arrested after a coordinated repressive operation by the police and house invasions. 8 comrades, anarchists, found themselves hostages in the hands of the state.

We have been charged with an inflated indictment that includes bank expropriations and weapons possession. The comrades are being held at the GADA [police HQ in Athens] and some comrades at the Vyronas Prison. Today, 12/05, we went through the prosecutor and were given a deadline to appear before the investigator on Friday, 15/05 at 9am at Evelpidon, building 9.

LONG LIVE ANARCHY

The 8 comrades for the May 11th case

–

Call for a solidarity rally for the 8 comrades of the expropriated bank in Kato Tithorea.

On the morning of May 11, an armed robbery takes place at a bank branch in Kato Tithorea. After a police operation and pursuit in the surrounding areas, four comrades and one comrade are arrested. Another comrade is arrested in Loutraki and two comrades in Athens. The prosecuting authorities create an inflated indictment that includes robberies, hostage-taking, ATM bombings, vehicle thefts, possession of weapons, etc. The comrades are transferred to the GADA and on 12/5 to Evelpidon where they are given a deadline of Friday 15/5.

From the very beginning, the media has attempted to depoliticize the comrades, giving them a thousand and two characteristics, in an attempt to assassinate their character. The state and the punitive mechanisms triumph over the dismantling of the “gang” that they succeeded in creating. But the answer to all of them is one and they have written it themselves from within the cells of GADA: LONG LIVE ANARCHY!

We call for a solidarity rally on Friday, 5/15 at 9:00 a.m. at the Evelpidon courts. We support the call for a solidarity rally at GADA today at 6:00 p.m.

Open Letter from imprisoned anarchist Komar (Surabaya-Indonesia)

Posted on 2026/05/13 by darknights

My friends and brothers and sisters,
inside and outside these walls,
Peace be upon you.

I’m writing this letter to let you know that, God willing, I’m doing alright. A while ago I came down with a mild fever, but alhamdulillah, I’m still holding on, still under His grace and protection. I hope all of you are safe, healthy, and kept well. Aamiin.

My dear friends,

I’ve lost count of how many letters failed before this one finally made it out. There are barely any writing supplies in here, and when there are, they never last long. Even now, as I write this, I’m still being kept in quarantine. I don’t know for how much longer. Though honestly, I don’t expect anything from being moved to another block. To me, it’s all the same. The only thing I truly want, the only thing I keep hoping for, is FREEDOM. I want to go home. I want to eat my mother’s cooking again. I want to sit with my family.

Posted on 2026/05/10 by darknights

Release update on some of the Chaos Star prisoners, plus the news Komar (from Black Block Zone) has written an important letter, which is being translated and will be published in the next days. Komar is still imprisoned in Surabaya and the Chaos Star prisoners are in Kebon Waru.

Pem and Herdi are expected to be released in approximately 30 days.

Jalus, Iyonk, Rexi, and TB are expected to be released in July.

The remaining detainees are Nopal and Adit, both sentenced to 3 years.

Meanwhile, Dena is still undergoing trial proceedings, which have currently reached the witness testimony stage. Dena is expected to undergo approximately five more hearings before sentencing, with an estimated sentence of 1 to 2 years.

INDONESIA – Update on the Trials of Bandung Anarchist Prisoners (Chaos Star Case)

Posted on 2026/04/18 by darknights
Adit and Chaos Star prisoners at trial
Death to the State and Long Live Anarchy

On April 16, 2026, the verdicts were delivered for five of our comrades at the Bandung District Court. The details are as follows:

* Albi: sentenced to 6 months in prison for the Bandung unrest in August–September 2026.

* Pem: sentenced to 9 months in prison for the arson attack on the police post in Gentong, West Java.

* Herdi: sentenced to 9 months in prison for the arson attack on the police post in Gentong, West Java.

* Nopal: sentenced to 1 year in prison for the arson attack on the police post in Gentong, West Java.

* Adit: sentenced to 1 year in prison for the arson attack on the police post in Gentong, West Java.

Also, the first trial of our comrade Dena, also known as Apip or Scoobydoomz, has been postponed and is now scheduled for April 24, 2026.

This trial marks the beginning of proceedings against comrades involved in the arson of Hana Bank during protests against the Indonesian Military Bill in March 2025. Adit, Nopal, and Jalus may face further trials for separate charges.

Note:
Adit and Nopal have already faced two trials on different charges, and the combined sentences they currently face total three years in prison, not including the upcoming verdict for the Hana Bank arson in Bandung.

Gregorius Hugo, also known as Bake or Bex (informant), received only 7 months and 15 days—a sentence that can be considered virtually a free pass due to time already served in police and prosecution custody. This light sentence, despite his key involvement in the Gentong case, confirms his role as an informant/dead fucking snitch and his cooperation with the authorities! We advise international networks to cut ties with him.

For anarchy and the black international!

Going Underground.
