Paska is finally out of jail

Our comrade Paska is finally out of the cage; he has an order to reside in Martinsicuro, to report to the police station and be indoors at night.

We await and demand his total liberation.

Solidarity with all the comrades involved in the Florence investigation.

(translated by act for freedom now!)

From the local press we learn that the court of review pronounced a verdict concerning the prosecutor’s appeal against the orders of release concerning the comrades arrested following an attack on a Casapound bookshop on 1^st January 2017.

The court rejected the prosecutor’s appeal for all the comrades except:

– Paska, currently being held in Lecce on charges of organized crimes, against whom serious evidence against him was apparently identified concerning the fabrication of the device on 1^st January. His situation has therefore worsened as he’s being held not only for ‘organized crime’ but also for charges related to the attack.

Nella notte tra 26 e 27 ottobre abbiamo incendiato tre veicoli nella via Jean Perrot a Grenoble, cioè un veicolo della SPIE (azienda che si ingrassa costruendo carceri), una macchina di una ditta di sicurezza privata, e un veicolo della Schindler. Abbiamo anche cercato di incendiare una Jaguar ma, per ragioni oscure, sembra che ne sia uscita solo con qualche traccia sulla carrozzeria e con le gomme fuse.

Con questo gesto vogliamo inviare la nostra solidarietà a Ghespe e Paska, oggi detenuti in Italia a seguito dell’ondata di arresti nell’agosto scorso, ai due incarcerati per la storia della sbirro-mobile bruciata. Ci rallegriamo anche dei recenti attacchi contro gli sbirri a Limoges, a Clermont e a Isère, ed esprimiamo il nostro sostegno agli incendiari tuttora anonimi.

Per l’azione contro gli stati, il capitale e i meccanismi di autorità: per eliminare le distanze con gli insorti attorno al mondo, per rompere l’isolamento dei compagni imprigionati.

Il 3 di agosto, lo stato italiano esegue 8 arresti di compagni accusandoli del coinvolgimento in 2 diversi episodi (6 a Firenze, uno a Roma e uno a Lecce). Val la pena ricordare che per poter eseguire 2 di questi arresti, gli sbirri hanno sgomberato la Riottosa Squat di Firenze. Nello specifico, 5 sono accusati di aver piazzato una bomba fuori da una libreria fascista a Firenze, che esplodendo ha ferito gravemente uno sbirro, mentre altri tre di un attacco con le molotov a una caserma dei carabinieri della stessa città. Nei giorni successivi, 6 di loro vengono rilasciati per insufficienza di prove. Per quanto riguarda i compagni che sono ancora in carcere, Pierloreto Fallanca è accusato di essere membro di una associazione a delinquere, Salvatore Vespertino per il tentato omicidio dello sbirro, con una traccia biologica di DNA come unica prova.

Genoa, by night: A car of Italian Post Office torched in solidarity with the prisoners of Scripta Manent, with Ghespe and Paska. We are with you! For all migrants who died on borders.

On Tuesday night, October 3^rd, we decided to smash an ATM of Italian Post Office in the neighbourhood of Bruzzano in Milan, because of its involvement in deportation business of migrants.

Solidarity with Ghespe and with Paska (who carried out a hunger strike against the prison conditions).

Sono tempi duri se sei nato sulla sponda sbagliata di questo “migliore dei mondi possibili”. Le catene ci vengono strette sempre più forte intorno al collo, e ora se ne accorgono anche coloro i quali fin’ora ci hanno detto che esageravamo. Alzano muri, dispiegano polizie nelle strade, sgomberano gli spazi che facciamo rivivere dopo che lo stato li lascia all’abbandono per anni. Arrestano chiunque metta in discussione un ordine imposto in cui nessuno di noi si riconosce più. Ci vogliono spazzare via, è evidente.

Here are two communiques by Ghespe, written with a month between them

I was arrested along with 7 other people in the umpteenth Digos [General Investigations and Special Operations Division] and ROS [Special Operations Group of Carabinieri], operation. Imagination never fails that scum (wish their health also failed them) and anyone who even just glanced at the newspapers knows very well how they went crazy this time too. But it must be said that although the papers read like a thriller (pretty third rate), they mention 3 events that have little to do with the imagination: the Molotov that flew over the Carabinieri barracks in Rovezzano in April, the ‘device’ that exploded at the casapound bookshop ‘il bargello’, where a specialized police bomb disposal expert lost an eye and a hand, and the fact that all those arrested are anarchists. Up until now Paska and I are the only ones to be held in jail.

...

On the 1^st of January 2017, following the explosion of home-made bomb in front of the fascist bookshop in which a policeman from the bomb disposal unit lost a hand and an eye, several homes of comrades were searched. The police were hoping to find firearms and/or explosives. The searches didn’t lead to nothing except for the seizure of pamphlets, computers, clothing and other generic objects (or can say materials). An investigation against persons unknown was launched with intention to charge with the offences “manufacturing, possession, and transportation of an explosive or incendiary device to a public place” and “attempted murder”.

From a letter dated 1^st October received from the prison in Lecce, we learned of Paska’s intention to begin a hunger strike next day, and to stage several protests against his prison conditions throughout the month of October, until he’s moved to another unit or prison.

He was arrested on 3^rd August and held in the prison of Lecce. Initially Paska was kept in solitary confinement, then he was transferred to the ‘arrivals’ unit where he is still being held. In the ‘arrivals’ unit, unlike the others, the (single) cells remain locked all day: the only times of sociality are 2 hours in the exercise yard in the morning and in the afternoon and in the recreation hall. Requests for special visits have always been rejected on the pretext of formalities. As concerns telephone calls the procedure continues to be troubled, whereas censorship of letters was revoked recently.
