Italy: The surveillance court of Rome rejected the appeal against the 41 bis measure for anarchist Alfredo Cospito

Posted on 2022/12/20 by darknights

December 19, 2022, 61 days after the start of the hunger strike to the bitter end against 41 bis prison regime and life imprisonment without possibility of parole by anarchist Alfredo Cospito.

The decision concerning the appeal against the 41 bis detention order for anarchist Alfredo Cospito has just been announced: the surveillance court of Rome rejected it. The comrade will remain in 41 bis. This is not the moment of despondency, it is the moment of anger. You will pay dearly for it. Today as yesterday: death to the State, to the capital, to all authority.

Rome, Italy: Damage and fires in the Appio Latino neighborhood in solidarity with anarchist Alfredo Cospito on hunger strike to the bitter end

Posted on 2022/12/19 by darknights

We learn from the media that on December 18, in Rome’s Appio Latino neighborhood, shortly after midnight unknown persons damaged a number of banking facilities, including a post office-specifically, at least one postamat was set on fire and some glass windows were smashed-by spilling into the street and also setting fire to some garbage cans. According to media reports, the damage and fires occurred, very quickly, between Macedonia Street, Via Latina and Roselle Square. Murals were left on some of the buildings: “Alfredo libero,” “No 41 bis,” in reference to Alfredo Cospito, an imprisoned anarchist on an all-out hunger strike against the 41 bis prison regime (in which he has been imprisoned since May 5) and the hostile life sentence (which is likely to be the final sentence for the comrade at the end of the Scripta Manent trial, which has reached its last trial hearings).

The repressive forces, which arrived shortly after the events, were unable to stop anyone as the unknown persons had already left the area.

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.

Italy: Anna Beniamino interrupts hunger strike

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

We learn by phone call that in the evening of today, Wednesday, December 14, Anna interrupts the hunger strike she started 38 days ago at the side of Alfredo, who is imprisoned in 41 bis prison regime.

At the end of the strike Anna has lost 13 kilos, with a blood pressure of 50 at the minimum, 80 at the maximum. Some values of her liver profile exceed the parameters considered acceptable from a health point of view. In the last period, she has been offered hospitalisation several times by the prison, which she has always refused.

The lives of our comrades in prison are at stake in this struggle. It is up to all of us anarchists and revolutionaries to ensure that it is safeguarded. This applies all the more to Alfredo, now on his 56th day of hunger strike and whose condition is becoming increasingly critical awaiting the decision of the Surveillance Court of Rome [on December 1st, a hearing was held at the Rome Surveillance Court on the appeal against Alfredo Cospito’s 41 bis detention measure, the outcome of which has not yet been announced by the court].

Carasco, Italy: Responsibility claim for the arson attack against MARR vehicles and warehouse in solidarity with Alfredo Cospito, Anna Beniamino, Juan Sorroche, Ivan Alocco, Toby Shone, Giannis Michailidis and the 11 turkish revolutionaries on hunger strike

Posted on 2022/12/19 by darknights

Responsibility claim for the arson attack against MARR vehicles and warehouse in solidarity with Alfredo Cospito, Anna Beniamino, Juan Sorroche, Ivan Alocco, Toby Shone, Giannis Michailidis and the 11 turkish revolutionaries on hunger strike (Carasco, Italy, November 26, 2022)

Chiavari: Fire at Marr vehicles and warehouse

Dinner is served, tonight flambé.

On Saturday, November 26, a slightly overcooked dinner was served. We set fire to a dozen vehicles, the warehouse and the ventilation system of Marr in Carasco [near Chiavari, in Liguria], a company that profits from the distribution of food in state prisons. That night it was its managers who swallowed a bitter pill. With this gesture we want to send all our solidarity to Alfredo currently on hunger strike to the bitter end because of his detention under the 41 bis regime.
Probably, given their very nature as servants, their inability to act without being commanded by a superior, it is impossible for guards and men of state to understand, but against us 41 bis will have no effect. We don’t need puppeteers from within directing our actions, and if they think that by burying our comrade alive they can stop our tensions, they are sadly mistaken. It will only unleash more anger and solidarity.
We will not stop until Alfredo is out of 41 bis.

Solidarity with Anna, Juan, Ivan and Toby, fighting from inside with him, solidarity with Giannis Michailidis and the 11 Turkish comrades detained by the Greek state who are also on hunger strike to the bitter end.

We stand by the comrades affected by Diamante operation.

Long live Anarchy

La Paz, Bolivia: Claim of explosive device attack on Italian embassy

Down with the torture regime of 41 bis!

Many (perhaps too many) years have gone by since that time (…) and what I feel like saying is simply to follow one’s instincts and not to pay too much attention to the instincts and not to pay too much attention to the prudence of those who, from the top of their own who, from the heights of one’s own ‘lived’ life, push for moderation. Because that popular saying that says ‘you are born an arsonist and die a firefighter’ is not so far-fetched. firemen’ is not so far-fetched».

Alfredo Cóspito

It drizzles relentlessly and around the city of La Paz the mountain range is covered with snow. Here, the rich live several hundred meters below, in a warm and green valley, where they have surveillance and private guards at every corner. We descend from the icy hills to interrupt the violent peace of the bosses with the loud and damaging rumble of a homemade bomb. Something becomes evident and concrete: the managers of toxicity, misery and charity are not untouchable. No peace for us, no peace for them!

Lecce, Italy: Sabotage of electric car charging stations in solidarity with anarchists Alfredo Cospito, Anna Beniamino and Juan Sorroche

Posted on 2022/12/19 by darknights

We learn from the media that at least seven electric vehicle chargers, located in various places in Lecce, have been sabotaged and rendered unusable by foam. On some of the columns were found the inscription “For Alfredo, Anna, Juan,” in reference to the imprisoned anarchists on hunger strike against the 41 bis prison regime and the hostile life sentence (Alfredo Cospito, imprisoned under 41 bis in Bancali Prison in Sassari, has been on hunger strike to the bitter end since Oct. 20, Anna Beniamino has been on hunger strike in solidarity since Nov. 7, while Juan Sorroche has been on strike for a month, from Oct. 25 to Nov. 24). According to local media reports, the sabotage took place “starting from at least last Friday [Dec. 2].”
