ARIS SIRINIDIS IS RELEASED




23/6
The court of Athens found Aris Sirinidis innocent and exempted him from the charges. A little while ago Aris arrived from the prisons of Koridallos to the cafe in Exarhia square where his friends hang out and met up with his own people. There waited for him many of his friends that welcomed him cheerfully and with enthusiasm.
His acquittal is a victory of the popular movement.
Aris is free! 1 year in prisons and courts and he was/is INNOCENT!

What do you have to say now cop-judges? What do you have to say journalists? You had baptized him "guilty" because of his political convictions, while he was/is INNOCENT!
You peaceful and lawabiding citizens should see this, you who said "he is an anarchist", "he must have done something"… INNOCENT!


11/4/2011 UPDATE ON ARIS SIRINIDIS CASE

The trial of Aris Sirinidis was postponed for Friday because a judge was sick

No matter when it happens we will also be there again

FREEDOM TO ARIS

5/5/2011 athens. The public prosecutor has asked for Simos to be aquitted of the charges, saying that there is no evidence connecting him to the robberies.



The judges have yet to announce their decision.
update now..
The judges decided that he is innocent for the bank robberies and acquitted him of those charges,
but he remains imprisoned because he still is accused of attempted homicide of the cop that shot him in the back which led to the amputation of his leg!!!
WHO ARE THE REAL ROBBERS AND MURDERERS?
COPS, PIGS, MURDERERS!!
FREEDOM NOW! TO ANARCHIST SIMOS SEISIDIS!

12/4/2011 UPDATE ON SIMOS TRIAL




The trial of fighter Simos Seisidis continued today with the examining of witnesses (3 or 4 men including the security guard of the bank where the robbery took place, a cop and 2 women) none of them recognized Simos and their testimonies were ridiculous and not based on their initial testimonies.. many contradictions that caused anger even to the prosecutors and judges...
the trial will continue 18/4/2011

WE SHALL ALL BE THERE!
SIMO HOLD STRONG UNTIL FREEDOM!

UPDATE ON SIMOS TRIAL
Simos Seisidis trial continued last tuesday with the testimony of defence witnesses.
Simos, an anarchist, is accused of 7 robberies and 2 attempted homicides. In the antipode of prosecution witnesses that did not have that much to say, beyond “I do not know, I did not see” and “I was pressed by the Service”, the defence witnesses had many things to testify, so much about the targeting of Seisidis, because of his dynamic participation in social struggles, as well as for the set up by the media and the repression mechanisms official charges and their repercussions. Repercussions that were proved disastrous in this case, since Seisidis, despite the complete absence genuine facts that support his prosecution, was persecuted, had a bounty put on his head, was shot in the back from a cop and suffered the amputation of his right leg. He still remains inprisoned, deprived of suitable medical care and exposed to a further aggravation of his health. Indicative of this unacceptable

30/3/11 UPDATE FROM THE APPEALS COURT ATHENS OF ANARCHIST SIMOS SEISIDIS





About 50 comrades, and friends, gathered in solidarity, most outside the court room (they didn’t let them in claiming there were no seats).




Mostly today there were demands from the defence, concerning transport (handcuffed etc), and the masked armed cops in the court room. The cops chased some comrades down to Alexandras av. They definitely beat one comrade, it started when family members and comrades of Simos were attacked with no reason by the cops.





The trial began around 9. 30 comrades were in the court room as well as 30 outside. The defence witnesses are 47. Last time 17 testified. Today two more. The second witness describes the shooter as a very tall guy, skinny with long hair and a ponytail and said clearly that it was not Aris Sirinidis. Another witness, a foreign national with no known address is not appearing in court and the defence of Aris insisted that his testimony is read in the room. In his testimony he describes a guy tall like a basketball player with long hair.



Worth mentioning is also that the court wanted to examine a cop-witness that has had pre-interrogative duties. Aris defence immediately produced a document-decision of the supreme court stating this is illegal. After an agreement of the judge and the prosecutor, the cop will testify as a person with special knowledge, (on the mask with the d.n.a.), and not as person with pre-interrogative duties.
The theatre will continue on April 11th
