  3. HSBC Bank Attacked in Solidarity with Imprisoned Anarchists in Indonesia (Bristol, UK)

    Bristol solidarity for Indonesia

    We receive and transmit:

    COMMUNIQUE

    On 10th June in Kingswood, Bristol, HSBC Bank was attacked and the windows were smashed. HSBC Bank are a large investor and financial bloodsucker operating in Indonesia, where foreign multinationals and domestic businesses allied to the Prabowo regime loot and destroy the ecology and people. It is the banks, capitalists and elites that are responsible for the misery in our lives and it doesn’t matter that our imprisoned comrades Adit, Naufal, Komar, Mpe and Dena are far away.

    Through destruction of a shared target, in this case a Bank with investments in the Indonesian state, we are making our solidarity real.

    Form affinity groups and go on the attack.

    International solidarity to all anarchist prisoners for June 11th and also to those jailed for the actions against Elbit in Filton.

    It is the State and Capital that is Terrorist.

    Free Alfredo Cospito.

    Long live Anarchy.

  5. Italy: In Times of War. About the Anti-Anarchist Raid of June 16th

    Tuesday June 16th, in Rome and elsewhere, yet more raids struck the anarchist movement, with six arrest warrants for as many comrades, various others under investigation, searches all over Italy and the eviction of the occupied space in Rome, Bencivenga.

    As well as that, two comrades have been arrested with the new charge of “terrorismo della parola” [terrorism of the word] (270-quinquies) for possession of a number of pamphlets found during the raid.

    While the information leaked by the media is scarcer and more patchy than usual, it is quite clear that the investigations concern a number of acts of sabotage of railway lines, in particular that carried out on February 14th on the Rome-Florence line, against the Cortina war Olympics in 2026. If the media’s efforts of mystification and defamation against anarchists is certainly nothing new, we cannot avoid pondering for a moment on the level reached by the propaganda of the regime this time (in particular by the ineffable TG1[main TV news]), which is particularly grotesque: “they would meet in a farmhouse like the Mafia”, “they were planning the strategy of tension”, “they were intending to carry out violent actions”, “anarchist terrorism”… It is worth pointing out to these gentlemen that for anarchists the Mafia is as bad as Authority, and that the “strategy of tension” was carried out in this country by the State, it is not difficult to see that behind these filthy words there is a precise intention: that which led, in 2015, to transforming the National Antimafia Direction (DNA) into National Antimafia and Antiterrorism Direction (DNAA). With the result that the same absolute ‘monsterisation’ and relative treatment previously reserved for real or presumed mafiosi is now being applied to anarchists (and moreover has been inflicted on the revolutionary communists for decades).

    With the aggravation, for revolutionaries, of not carrying out violence for reasons of profit or power, but as a kind of end in itself for the sheer joy of destruction or who knows what death wish. As if thousands of people had not opposed the winter Olympics for very clear reasons: the presence of the military (not in uniform for the occasion), of the Israeli team, the escort of the ICE gangs of murderers, the devastation of the Alpine environment in the name of the usual “grand event” – and as if these motivations had not been claimed, unequivocally, in the communique following the sabotage. As for the usual accusation of “terrorism”, we believe that Gaza has clarified this question sufficiently – and that there can be no more doubt about who spreads the terror.

    In times of war, an old poet said, the first victim is truth.

    While Alfredo Cospito remains in 41-bis like a kind of scapegoat for the “sins” of the whole anarchist movement, the State has reached the point of criminalising the very intention of doing something to stop him being tortured. While we are still recovering from the shock of the death of Sara and Sandro the State is trying to use this against us.

    We don’t know if those arrested and under investigation carried out the actions they are accused of. We can only repeat what we have written many times in similar cases: if they are “innocent” they have all our solidarity, if they are “guilty” they have it even more.

    Solidarity to Nico, Bibi, Micol, Arnau, Stefano, Giulia, Luna, Pietro, Tony, to all those under investigation and those raided.
    Alfredo out of 41-bis!

    With Sara and Sandro in our hearts.

  12. Italy: Authorities Renew 41bis Solitary Confinement of Anarchist Prisoner Alfredo Cospito

    Italian Justice Minister Carlo Nordio has renewed the 41bis solitary confinement regime against anarchist Alfredo Cospito, held in Cagliari prison. The measure was communicated directly to the prisoner by the ministry itself. Fabio Ramelli, vice-president of the Chamber of Deputies of the Brothers of Italy, justified the decision by stating that it corresponded to “the profile of political and social danger that anarchism represents,” describing Cospito as a point of reference for anarchist insurrectionary movements. This measure is widely denounced as state retribution and a form of torture.

  14. Italy renews 41bis regime against Alfredo Cospito

    ‚Italian Minister of Justice Carlo Nordio has decided to renew 41bis for Alfredo Cospito. The measure, expected by 4 May, was notified to defence attorney Flavio Rossi Albertini and confirms the hardest possible line: no retreat, no review, no doubt. It is not a technicality. It is not administrative routine. It is a deliberate political choice that must be called by its name: revenge.

    41bis is not a simple restrictive measure. It is prolonged isolation, deprivation of contact, restriction of speech, rarefaction of social life to the point of unbearable. It is a regime that depletes the person, that reduces existence to controlled survival. For this reason, for years, jurists, observers, and organisations have labelled it a form of torture. Not a metaphor: a description….‘

  27. Turin: 18 Anarchists Sentenced for Demonstrating in Solidarity with Alfredo Cospito

    The trial in the first instance of one of the two parts of “Operation City,” related to the March 4, 2023 demonstration in solidarity with Alfredo Cospito (who at that time had been on hunger strike for months against Article 41 bis and life imprisonment without the possibility of parole), concluded last Thursday, April 16. As a result, all the defendants were found guilty and sentenced to prison terms ranging from 18 months to 5.5 years.

    The charges of conspiracy to commit devastation and looting, which had already been rejected by the defendants, were dropped by the courts, reducing them to conspiracy to commit aggravated damage and conspiracy to commit assault against a public official. During the session, 18 sentences were handed down, ranging from five and a half years to one and a half years in prison, as well as substantial fines to the Turin City Council (€33,000), various companies (approximately €13,000), and the legal costs of the civil prosecution (€16,000) for 16 of the defendants. As the defense lawyers emphasized, most of the defendants were not convicted for specific actions or events, but rather for “moral complicity” or “facilitating the conduct of others.”

    ACCOUNT FROM AN ACCUSED COMRADE:

    The trial in one of the two parts of Operation City, related to the March 4, 2023, demonstration in solidarity with Alfredo Cospito, who had been on hunger strike for months against Article 41 bis and life imprisonment without parole, concluded on April 16, 2026. On that day, thousands of comrades and supporters marched through the center of Turin, demonstrating with fury and leaving behind only a small fraction of the violence unleashed everywhere by various governments and their armed forces. The charges of conspiracy to commit devastation and looting, which had already been rejected by the defendants, were also dropped by the courts, reduced to conspiracy to commit aggravated damage and conspiracy to commit assault against a public official. All the defendants were found guilty and sentenced to terms ranging from 18 months to 5.5 years.

    Meanwhile, the trial of other comrades accused in connection with the same day of protest is also underway, a separate procedure to expedite the so-called first phase.

    On March 10, during the preliminary hearing, the investigating judge dismissed the charges against the suspects who had been arrested before the start of the march, accused of minor offenses (Article 115 of the Penal Code), despite the prosecutor’s request for their conditional release. The comrades accused of complicity in acts of vandalism, aggravated resistance, and possession of offensive objects have been sent to trial, and a hearing has been scheduled for November 11, 2026: a total of 29 charges.

    We reiterate that Alfredo Cospito remains subjected to the torture regime of Article 41-bis, and that this will likely be extended in the coming days. That period of struggle alongside Alfredo succeeded in placing state torture and the vengeful “justice” of courts and politicians at the center of public debate, highlighting their contradictions. But the fight against Article 41-bis continues.

    In any case, no regrets.

That period of struggle alongside Alfredo succeeded in placing state torture and the vengeful “justice” of courts and politicians at the center of public debate, highlighting their contradictions. But the fight against Article 41-bis continues.

    In any case, no regrets.

  33. A CALL FOR INTERNATIONAL SOLIDARITY: NO COMRADE WILL BE LEFT ALONE IN THE HANDS OF REPRESSION! #AlfredoCospito

    ‚Alfredo Cospito is an anarchist comrade jailed since 2012, initially arrested and sentenced (along with another comrade) for kneecapping the CEO of Ansaldo Nucleare. He has served his sentence for that crime (the other comrade is now free), but he is currently serving a 23-year sentence issued in the “Scripta Manent” trial. This was a repressive operation against 20 years of FAI/FRI actions. Comrade Anna Beniamino is also serving a 17-year sentence for this repressive operation.

    In May 2022, he was placed in 41 bis, a “harsh prison” regime invented in the ’90s to psychologically annihilate mafia “chiefs” and force them to cooperate. It is now extended to over 700 prisoners, including members of revolutionary groups such as BR-PCC. In October 2022, Alfredo began a six-month hunger strike against the 41-bis regime and life sentences without parole, his likely fate according to the terrorism and political massacre charges…‘
