23rd MARCH 2023 URGENT CALL FOR INTERNATIONAL MOBILISATION IN SOLIDARITY WITH ALFREDO COSPITO
End the 41 bis torture and solitary confinement imposed on Alfredo Cospito! Join the action and organise to save Alfredo!
FREEDOM FOR ALFREDO COSPITO
We are calling mass international mobilisation for Alfredo Cospito one day before the court hearing that will decide his fate of whether he will die or live.
Alfredo Cospito is on hunger strike since 20th October 2022 against the 41 bis prison regime (harsh solitary confinement) and the time is running out before irreversible damage is caused to his health.
His demand to be taken out of the 41bis regime is just and can be accepted without any consequences to any state that respects the rule of law and right to free speech. There is no space or time left for Alfredo. The law that is created specially for mafia cannot be used on political prisoners.
Recently re-examination of a separate case upheld the decision to annul the precautionary measures which is also one of the elements that placed Alfredo under the 41 bis torture regime. This is a proof that he is not guilty because he practiced his right to free speech through his articles and beliefs.
We know well that the Italian state is trying to condemn Alfredo to death by this 41 bis torture regime. And up to know he is resisting with his life.
It is our duty to defend Alfredo and his resistance at these critical moments, therefore we call on people to mobilise the day before the hearing on 24th March that might determine his fate, to send a clear message to the Italian state to respect his demand and fulfil its obligation not to be complicit in his death.
– Take to the streets and organise a protest at Italian Embassies or Consulates
– Make calls/send emails to Italian government officials and tell them once again to respect the demands of Alfredo Cospito
– Talk to your union or organisation representatives to get involved and support Alfredo
DO WHATEVER YOU CAN TO RAISE ALFREDO’S VOICE THAT THEY TRYING TO SILENCE
SILENCE MEANS DEATH
FREEDOM FOR ALFREDO COSPITO
END THE 41 BIS TORTURE
