C.C.F. TRIAL UPDATE, (second Halandri case trial) DAY 2. 20/12/11 – Athens

translate by Actforfreedomnow!/boubourAs

The defence advocates asked for a postponement of the trial because of the short time they have had to prepare their defence with their clients. All accused comrades agreed on this. The advocates also asked for the comrades to be kept in Koridallos prisons and be spread out to different prisons, in order to be able to cooperate with them. After a short break the judge accepted the postponement and also answered that its not up to the court to decide if the prisoners are moved. Neither did he comment on the point of the advocates which mentioned that if the comrades are spread out to different prisons, the postponement which they asked for and the court accepted is cancelled, because you cant prepare for a trial without the possibility of cooperation with the accused.


The trial will continue on January 9th.


Before the end of the session, the comrades asked to read a statement, which was read by Ch.Tsakalos, who said before reading: “We want to read a political statement concerning the facts of the recent escape we carried out from Koridallos prisons. Maybe initially the matter might seem irrelevant with the case of the court, but it has immediate importance for one particular reason. This attempt, which we made, not only transferred a message to Koridallos prisons and generally towards the whole correctional system, but also towards this court.”



POLITICAL STATEMENT of the R.O. Conspiracy of Cells of Fire


“This statement is in order to clarify and publicly place our position concerning our recent escape attempt from the prisons.

The fact that we are prisoners in the cells of democracy does not mean that we accept even for a moment our position either as prisoners, neither as accused in front of the political court martial you have set up against us.

There will never be a warden who will lock our soul, neither a judge who will judge our values. We are everlasting enemies of lawful order and eternal escapees of the prisons.


Obviously these few words that follow cannot describe the degradation of the correctional institutions which is experienced by all prisoners who did not surrender their dignity, but they carry it with them in every isolation, to every disciplinary room, on every transfer, in every torture, every beating…


You appointed martial judges of the juridical mafia maybe from over your desks you share out hundreds of years of prison, obeying the hands which mobilize you like puppets, but you should know that our will for freedom blazes day by day.


With your decisions as modern executioners, you bury people in tones of cement and bars hiding thus the consequences of the rotten system you serve. As for us who are anarchist urban guerrillas, you want to revenge and punish us, because you know that your names and those like you are already written in the list of our future targets. The prison you send people with the same ease as you read a trial brief, is a massive mincer which mills bodies, emotions, thoughts, imagination…


it is a sterilized mechanical world where orders echo from loudspeakers, locking up of cells and the noise of human resignation.


The large majority of the prisoners made a deal of idiots and surrendered their freedom and dignity in exchange for a days work, a leave, a promise for bail or even nothing.


All discussions for the humanization of the correctional system is nothing but meaningless and hypocritical talk. The solution is one, either you escape or you destroy the prison.


In this decision of ours, we heard knocks on the wall from different circles of acquaintances and met people who which we share the common desire for freedom. We can clearly say that we are proud of our choices and the relations we have built with them through this common attempt to escape, even if it did not reach our expectations. Unfortunately we were less lucky than we wanted, while stupidity found its expression in a little person-warden proving that it is powerful.


Some will rush to speak of failure.


However, our escape was successful. We escaped from the defeatism of the acceptance of our role as prisoners. We escaped from the sleepiness of the psychotropic drugs which are distributed generously in the prisons, from the benefits of prison work, from the illusions of future leave and bails and we acted as anarchist revolutionaries.


If the job of the wardens and judges is to lock the doors of the prisons, ours is to unlock them by forcing them open. Even if we did not manage to liberate our bodies, we liberated our existence even if just for a few moments by occupying a space in prison.


That feeling is unique and we do not regret anything.


Besides, we fight for a freedom beyond the official version of the laws and the values of this society. This struggle cannot be tried, neither can be imprisoned.


Today many people die from car accidents, from addiction to substances, from industrial illnesses. Others accept the death of boredom and loneliness sunken into the conventions of a law abiding life. We choose to risk our lives for the leap towards freedom even if there is no safety net under. There is nothing greater than that.


Now we lost a battle, but not the war. We look ahead.


Every moment promises a new plan, a new cooperation-friendship, an unexpected possibility which opens in front of us dangerous and subversive.


In any case, its not important if you are caught hostage, but if you surrender inside yourself.
