Yesterday, Wednesday 16 March, in the context of a repressive operation, two anarchist comrades, Evelin and Gianluca, were arrested in Rome. The investigation and the operation are the result of a joint work of the ROS [Special Operations Group] of the Carabinieri and the DIGOS [General Investigations and Special Operations Division], coordinated by the public prosecutor of Genoa in the figure of the public prosecutor Federico Manotti. The two comrades are charged with “possession of explosive material and explosives, attempted manufacture of improvised explosive devices, as well as possession of explosive material with the purpose of attacking the public safety”, in conspiracy with unknown persons. Noting that the repressive forces are doing their job, carrying out the tasks for which they were instituted, the comrades are left with the need to act accordingly. Even in these years of social peace, of mass restrictions, of massacres in prisons, of discipline, of war and mobilisation for total war there have been those who have acted, who through action have affected the structures and figures of the state and capital.
We are not interested in going into the merits of the investigation, instead we are interested in clearly expressing and strongly reiterating our solidarity with Evelin and Gianluca and the practices they are accused of.
Revolutionary solidarity with the arrested comrades and with all anarchists imprisoned in state prisons.
