We demand the release of our comrade Gabriele!
In the night from Monday to Tuesday, the police in Milan kidnapped our friend Gabriele and took him to San Vittore prison. He is accused of attacks on neo-Nazis during the “Day of Honor” in Budapest. He is currently awaiting his extradition trial!
Prison conditions in Hungary are intolerable
Since February, two other young people have been in custody in Hungary without a verdict in connection with these anti-fascist actions. They report untenable hygienic conditions in the prisons. Medical care is not guaranteed and they are denied contact with friends and family. The media repeatedly report on the overcrowded prisons in Hungary. As these conditions are intolerable, we demand: no extradition to Hungary!
Background to the Day of Honor
Since 1997, neo-Nazis have been gathering in the Hungarian capital on February 11 for the so-called “Day of Honor”, which commemorates the attempted escape of the besieged Nazi troops in 1945. This deeply historical revisionist day attracts thousands of prominent and violent neo-Nazis every year. The initiator of this event, István Győrkös, was sentenced to life imprisonment in 2019 for shooting a police officer in the head. The neo-Nazis who were attacked there are very dangerous people and not victims, as the media portray them!
Under Hungary’s right-wing government, all people who stand up for a better world are under threat. Repression against emancipatory movements is increasing throughout Europe: Increasingly harsh attacks by the state against the backdrop of an ever-increasing right-wing trend. But we must expose the fact that the great, looming danger to society posed by “left-wing extremist thugs” is just a hoax perpetrated by angry police authorities! Because anti-fascism is not a danger to the general public!
We stand together and demand the release of Gabriele, Tobias and Ilaria!
No extradition to Hungary!
Freedom for all anti-fascists!
