In solidarity with the condemned comrade for her participation in the Revolutionary Struggle, Pola Roupa, and for her final “liberation” from the state-judicial hostage-taking, dozens of comrades formed a gathering body sending a strong signal of solidarity -with slogans, banners, flyers and texts- while the comrade was once again before the judicial council of Chalkida yesterday, Friday, January 10.
Early on, long before the three-member judicial council began “questioning” the comrade, police forces were lined up in front of the two judicial buildings of Chalkida (court of appeal and court of first instance), while snitches who were closely following the gathering were evicted by comrades.
This time, the hearing of the comrade by the judicial council was much shorter than last year’s long proceedings. Comrade Pola Roupa stood – as in all the years of her captivity – with political ethos, consistency and dignity throughout the process.
The first information from the comrade herself and the lawyer who attended the council is that there is a positive climate regarding the result. However, this remains to be proven in practice. Perhaps, from what we have been informed, the final decision will be taken in the near future (possibly next week). In any case, there will be an immediate announcement about the decision.
Comrade Nikos Maziotis is also facing a crucial battle, waiting for his request for conditional release after 16 years (with daily wages) of a closed prison and 14 real prisons to be examined by the competent judicial council of Lamia.

P.S. It is customary for stupidity, snitch and disinformation to be a characteristic of many snitch journalistic sites and “ingenious” reporters, the latest being that “members of the Revolutionary Struggle hold a protest rally outside the courthouse of Chalkida”. Solidarity is our weapon, therefore, and in the context of the international week of solidarity (10-16/1/2025) for the condemned comrades of the Revolutionary Struggle Pola Roupa and Nikos Maziotis, comrades in solidarity carry out solidarity movements, microphones, events and rallies, in Greece and abroad.
