Nero ist in Freiheit!

Posted on by

Eineinhalb Jahre wurde Nero in den JVAs Moabit und Tegel gefangengehalten, nachdem er einen Bullenhelikopter, während Krawallen in der Rigaer Straße, geblendet hatte.

18 Monate Zersetzungsversuche des Knastes und seiner Schließer*innen, eifriger Bemühungen des LKAs ihn noch länger hinter Gittern zu behalten und steter Forderungen der Knastleitung, sich von seinem staatsfeindlichen Umfeld zu distanzieren.

Another Wave of Arrests and Torture against Russian Anarchists

On February 1, 2019, officers of the FSB, the Russian state security apparatus descended from the KGB, arrested a dozen people in the latest wave of their campaign of repression against accused anarchists throughout the country. After brutally torturing them over the following 24 hours in order to force them to agree to incriminating statements, they released 11 of them. The twelfth arrestee, Azat Miftakhov, temporarily disappeared within the legal system while the FSB continued torturing him and refusing his lawyer access to him. This is just the most recent of a series of events in which the FSB have systematically employed torture to force arrestees to sign false confessions in order to fabricate “terrorist conspiracies” involving activists. This pattern will continue until people put enough pressure on the Russian government to discourage it from disappearing and torturing young people—or else, if this does not occur, until the secret police serving other governments, emboldened by the successes of the FSB, escalate their own use of torture and fabricated “conspiracies” to suppress activism in other countries as well.

Solidarity with trans prisoners

RhizomiA – Bennigsenstraße

The 22nd of January is trans prisoner day of action and solidarity. It’s a chance for those on the outside to support trans prisoners and raise awareness about the issues they face, and for trans people on the inside to have a voice and organise together. Being trans in this world means facing abuse, the terror of scrutiny, disgust and isolation. These problems are even harsher for those who are in prison, literally locked in a cage, in the middle of a violent and coercive prison system. Trans people who are held by the state are particularly affected by trans hatred, as well as patriarchal and racist violences. As a way of building support to our imprisoned siblings, we invite you to a presentation about the situation of trans people in prison, along with a letter writing workshop to send words of solidarity to those on the inside.
