A Farewell Present From HMP Parc

Posted on 2023/01/04 by darknights
At 05:00 on December 28th, his release date, Toby Shone was woken by members of the HMP Parc security department with an early morning leaving present. Crashing in through the door and making as much noise as possible, and amid a flood of insults and threats, Toby was ordered to get dressed solely for the screw-faced screws to be able to carry out a final strip search on him. Despite the abuse and attempted imitation, our fly on the wall reporter is able to confirm that he did not rise to their bait. Instead he just laughed in their faces. Picked up by plain clothes anti-terrorism cops an hour later, Toby was subjected to one final indignity by Parc, and was not issued with his statutory £82.39 discharge grant.

Chile: Arrests and raids in the framework of the explosive attack against the National Directorate of the Gendarmerie

Posted on 2023/01/04 by darknights

On December 27, 2021, the group “Negra Venganza” claimed responsibility for the explosive attack against the National Directorate of Gendarmerie, causing significant damage to its offices and buildings after the detonation of an explosive device against its premises.

Almost a year after the attack, the repressive forces carried out important raids and arrests in order to find those responsible. On December 22, 2022, the police raided several homes in Santiago and Valparaiso, arresting about 7 people.

5 detainees will be prosecuted for different illegal elements found in their homes, a sixth is directly accused of the explosive attack against the gendarmerie, and a seventh was found with black powder in his home.

So far 4 of the detainees will be formalized, and there will be more clarity on the legal situation. Solidarity with the accused for the attack on the gendarmerie!


Comrade accused of explosive attack on gendarmerie and arrested during raids remanded in custody

On December 22, 2022, the South Prosecutor’s Office ordered multiple raids in an operation to find those responsible for the attack on the National Directorate of the Gendarmerie, which occurred in December 2021, an action claimed as “Negra Venganza”.

The result of the operation ended only on December 23 with the formalization of 4 detainees:

Three subjects were formalized for the possession of different illegal objects found in their homes, and were remanded in custody. Aldo Hernandez was formalized for the attack to the National Direction of Gendarmerie, 16 crimes of frustrated injuries (by the jailers who were inside) and carrying weapons and ammunition.

The 10th Court of Guarantee accepted the term of 120 days of investigation, being transferred to the prison/company Santiago 1 and the Prison “La Gonzalina” in Rancagua.

Solidarity with those who arm themselves in their denials and attack the jailers!

Chile: Text from anti-speciesist comrades imprisoned for the Susaron case in memory of Sebastian Oversluij

Posted on 2022/12/20 - 2022/12/20 by darknights

9 years later, more present than ever! From this time capsule called prison, we remember that afternoon of December 11, when we learned that an animal of our race dared to bite with the joy of very few. And that in his daring the armed tamer who guarded that symbolic institution of power, responded as what he is.
An enemy to the death. Like any uniformed man.
We do not victimize you, savage warrior, wherever your serene gaze may be. We smile knowing the pleasure that shook your heart at the door of that beautiful confrontation with the suffocating reality, with your submachine gun as one more part of your determined and agitated being.

We celebrate your impetus and embrace your example of life. Not as a metaphor or anecdote. But as a daily path and choice.
You are not and were not a hero, you would hate to have seen yourself that way.
But you are a reference of how to counteract the inactive death, of the idea of the duel to death with the existent and its false critics. That many use as a slogan and few embrace until they burn.
Nine years later, and more present than ever.
Sebastian Oversluij. Pelao Angry.
Anarcho nihilist vegan straight. Dead at war with this shitty reality.

Susaron case prisoners.
San Miguel Prison.

China: ‘The Invisible Coat’

Posted on 2022/12/20 - 2022/12/20 by darknights

China is probably ahead of everyone else in turning the country into a digital concentration camp. CCTV cameras are installed almost at every step and residents are very tired of the constant monitoring, believing that the state thus interferes in their personal lives.

However, for every action of the state, a person looks for counteraction.

Graduate students from Wuhan University won Huawei’s cybersecurity innovation competition, demonstrating a coat whose camouflage prints can hide a person’s identity from AI cameras.

The contest winners say the prints were created using artificial intelligence. The whole point of the pattern on the fabric is to reflect light, so that surveillance cameras can’t react to visible light. At night, special devices, with which the coat is also equipped, distort the thermal radiation and thus manage to deceive the infrared sensors of smart cameras.

The “smart” coat is called InvisDefense. The creators are confident that they have found a reliable way to bypass human recognition technology. Engineers tested their development on campus surveillance cameras. According to the results of the tests, it became clear that in reality the detection accuracy is 57%.

In the future, the developers intend to create “invisible” objects for AI cameras. It can be all sorts of objects or even a car. They are also studying the possibility of bypassing other types of cameras that use remote sensing of satellites or aircraft.

The developers themselves say that their work is intended to identify vulnerabilities in the surveillance system in order to improve it. However, stealth coats are already on sale and at a relatively low price.

Italy: Bug found in Terni — once again…

Posted on 2022/12/19 by darknights

Once again they took advantage of Giampi’s comfort and spaciousness to place yet another bug on him, this time it must be said that they put a little more effort and did a more thorough job, certainly not a ten-minute job.

Italy: A bug was found at the Circolo Anarchico “La Faglia” in Foligno

Posted on 2022/12/19 by darknights

On the evening of Dec. 16, a bug was discovered inside the Circolo Anarchico “La Faglia” in Foligno, which has been open since October this year. The device, which was connected to the electrical system of the space, consisted of a microphone, two antennas, a SIM card, a memory card and was also equipped with a battery. All housed inside a power outlet.

We are not surprised by these attentions, to which we have been accustomed for years, which have been repeated throughout the Spoleto Circolaccio experience, yet the nausea never goes away toward those who spend their lives listening to the affairs of others.

Our thoughts, however, go with affection to Alfredo Cospito who is dedicating his life, as he always did, until his last breath, to freedom.

Atlanta, USA: Banner Drop In Solidarity With 5 Arrested Forest Defenders Charged With Domestic Terrorism

Posted on 2022/12/19 - 2022/12/19 by darknights

5 people have been arrested and charged with Domestic Terrorism for their alleged connection to Defend The Atlanta Forest movement in USA. These arrests were notoriously brutal, included the deployment of chemical weapons repeatedly, and placed unfounded charges against them in an effort to torture, terrorize, and brutalize.

We want every prison to burn, every prisoner to be free, and the violence of the state to be destroyed. We must stand in unflinching solidarity with all those arrested, and be committed to absolute resistance to any current or future state investigation, no matter what it requires of us. Anything less is unconscionable.

Greece: ’14 years later the only thing that has changed is the bullet in the chamber’ – Thanos Chatziangelou

Posted on 2022/12/08 by darknights

Dawn of December 5th

Thessaloniki

Simmachiki Street

Uniformed bastards of the DI.AS. chase a vehicle that does not stop at their signal. They shoot the driver who has left a gas station without paying the price. A bullet is lodged in the head and the driver loses control of the vehicle. The result? Kostas Fragoulis a 16 year old kid in intensive care from a cop’s bullet to the head.

Scum Snitch Journalists

Before the truth about the event has even come to light, police reporters have begun to weave the dominant narrative. The journalistic vagrancy is talking about a maniacal driver who rammed a police vehicle to get away from the chase. It is the compounded lie that as another truth will give extenuating circumstances to the thug of the DI.AS. In the same way that the uniformed scum in Perama were exonerated. The journalistic sycophants, bloodthirsty in the arena of spectacle, constitute the state narrative that adorns the prestige of the criminal nature of tyranny.

When the state murdered the 15-year-old anarchist comrade Alexandros Grigoropoulos, the media saw vandalism and riots. When the battalions of Chrysochoidis executed comrade Lambros Fountas, the terror panels of Lambropoulos and Souliotis spoke of an Albanian thug. In Perama 38 bullets in the body of Nikos Sampanis shielded the self-defence of the motorized assault battalions of the DI.AS. And when the lie does not overshadow the truth, they bury it by overemphasizing it in the next main news story, just as they buried the murder of 16-year-old Michalis in Ditika, when he was swept away by a police service vehicle. Today the authoritarian subjectivity of the armed journalistic pen is pitted against the same bloody truth over and over again. A 16-year-old kid in intensive care from a cop’s bullet to the head.

Greece: Scenes from the riot in Exarcheia after a 16-year-old kid was shot in the head by cops in Thessaloniki

Posted on 2022/12/06 - 2022/12/06 by darknights

 

Dec 5, 2022

It was during the early hours of Monday 5 December 2022, when a 16 year old kid was shot in the head by a greek police officer of the DIAS motorcycle unit during a car chase in Thessaloniki.

He was accused that he filled his pick-up truck with 20 euros worth of petrol and left the petrol station without paying. Following the news and his dire physical condition, riots erupted in the city of Thessaloniki, located in the north of Greece, later on the same day. At the same time, in Athens, several different protests were held in the evening of December the 5th. The protest in Exarcheia, held in front of the memorial of Alexis Grigoropoulos, (a 15 year old kid that was shot dead by a cop on 6 December 2008, sparking the events that would lead to massive riots all over Greece, known as the December Revolt) soon turned into a march that led to a riot, as seen in the video.

It has to be noted, that today 6 December, protests have been planned in dozens of cities and towns all over Greece, in remembrance of the December Revolt and the murder of Alexandros Grigoropoulos by the police in Exarcheia 15 years ago to this day.
