Free Thodoris Iliopoulos from Comrade Antigeitonies


Thodoris Iliopoulos is a 31-year old defender of freedom who after his arrest in December 2008 he is illegally detented for 8 months now in Koridalos Prison in Athens with fabricated molotov-throwing charges by cops, whereas all other witnesses confirm that he is totally innocent as he was simply taking a short peaceful walk with his friends. He went on hunger strike since 10 July 2009 and he is supported by the whole Greek society and many other people around the world. Until 20 August 2009 the Greek state refused to allow him to be taken care of in a real hospital and instead kept him in the underfunded and under-equipped prison’s ‘hospital’, putting his health at extreme danger.

The fight for his immediate release continues, and more and more Greek organisations express their support day after day. Except from all freedom-defending groups in Greece, other organisations that have paid attention to his case include the ADEDY labour union, the laywers’ bar association of Thessaloniki, the media (such as the Eleftherotypia and Avgi newspapers), but also political parties. The Solidarity Initiative for Thodoris Iliopoulos has released a call-out for international solidarity and a solidarity concert is arranged for Monday 24 August 2009 at 20:00 in Athens, in Thessaloniki and many other cities all over Greece at the same time. In San Francisco (USA) it' s going to be a protest at the same time outside of the Greek council.

Thank you again comrade
With revolutionaly regards
antigeitonies
