SOLIDARITY WITH THE COMRADE KOSTAS DIMALEXIS

HANDS OF THE STRUGGLERS – SOLIDARITY WILL WIN

On 22/11/2022 he was kidnapped and arrested on a trumped-up charge of state security, comrade Kostas Dimalexis, a resident of the neighborhood and member of the Community of Squatted Prosfygika of L. Alexandra. His arrest and prosecution were used as an alibi for the invasion of Prosfygika, which was and still is the real target of the operation and the attempt to criminalize our community and our neighborhood.

The indictment itself lacks of any serious evidence, was based on the fabrication of promises and with its promotion by the establishment media. The repression did nothing but to repeat a practice that is familiar to them. Create tanks of suspects and sometimes uses them to hit and tie up cases, producing repressive politics. Countless cases over the years that fighters have been dragged into trumped-up trials, movements targeted and struggles suppressed, in order to end up into solemn acquittals or convictions that even make embarrass this bourgeois justice system itself. At the same time, these cases are the other side of the same coin. The ever greater diversion of the Greek justice system into a regime mechanism of political persecutions, protection of the criminal elites (case Ilioupolis, the cases of Lignadis, Filippidis, Fourthiotis, Greek Mafia, etc.), terrorizing the society and imposing a totalitarian regime similar to that of the states in Africa and in Latin America.

Comrade Kostas, on the basis of these non-existent elements and with only his political identity as an anarchist militant and a member of the Community of Squatted Prosfygika, was detained in custody in Korydallos Prison with the consent opinion of the investigator and the prosecutor. On Korydallos Prison instead of being transferred to one of the wards where other anarchist comrades are being held and which normally should have been without any explanation he was transferred to ward E. The move as it turns out today was a political choice and an order of the ministry and the competent authorities as part of the general policy of repression of the anarchist movement in particular and the social and political resistance in general, in parallel and in combination with the onslaught of the repression of all social rights. The criminalization of political life, the systematic strengthening of the legal regime the leveling of the health care system and the labor market, rights, etc.
On 22/12, the companion was transferred illegally, without any notification to him or his lawyers at the Trikala Prison. A transfer that comes to complete, the same vindictive and terrorist attitude against him. Although for the prison system such terrorist and vindictive transfers are commonplace, for the system of bourgeois democracy such practices are irregularities that are inconsistent with the institutional framework of the bourgeois state.

It is even more interesting that the proposal to transfer him was a proposal by both the ministry and the prison administration to the prison council as early as 7:00 a.m. December 7. We probably don’t know the hows and whys of such and the response that came two weeks later. We do know that it is a move to manage and isolate the political and a vindictive move against them.

With this move, the repression is not only trying to limit our comrade to an area remote from his familiar environment. It attempts to isolate him altogether from the political, social and family environment. Particularly the latter, since his family is experiencing a very painful mourning, at the same time that there is no financially able to travel such a long distance. Already our comrade, since their entry into Korydallos Prison was put to a 5-day quarantine isolation regime, a measure imposed by and continues to this day for the purpose of isolation and breaking the memory of the prisoners. It was then transferred to ward E again in order to isolate him away from others, and finally to Trikala Prison. For the only reason we could assume for the latter is our comrade’s attempt to collectively organize himself and others with other prisoners to improve their daily lives and in relation to the problems they faced living in a ward of 18 people with broken windows and miserable conditions.

This transfer, which came 2 days after the transfer of comrade Th. Hatziangelou to the Nigrita prison reveals the total of the repression against political prisoners. It is clear to us both the targeting of the repressive mechanisms to level our comrades and against our community. The Greek state has long ago lost even the semblance of a bourgeois parliamentary democracy, the only thing we can give him credit for that it is now a fascist state similar to those of Turkey and Hungary and Ukraine, dangerous for the whole society, which will sooner or later be forced to self-protect from that, by organizing with class and social unity and perspective to defend itself against the worldwide advance of modern fascism with a democratic cover.

For our part, we remain in solidarity with our comrade political prisoner Kostas Dimalexis until his release. We remain in our neighborhood and community, protecting it from the violence of the police. from the murderers of repression. We fight until the collapse of this tyrannical and unjust regime. Until the whole world becomes one a community of equality, freedom, solidarity and social justice.
