At this year’s demo, solidarity was powerfully expressed both from the inside and the outside of Koridallos prisons. Nearly a thousand people in solidarity turned up to the gathering before midnight, and started to chant loud slogans. Several comrades set off fireworks while prisoners were making noise and throwing flaming objects out of cell windows. Shortly after the crowd moved from the park across the men’s prison to a parking lot opposite the women’s prison, anti-riot cops used tear gas to quell the large demonstration, and chased protesters into nearby streets. Four detentions were reported.

Fire to the prisons!
