Belgrade Six case: Appeal from Serbia for international solidarity
actions – February 6th, 2012
Dear comrades,
We would like to inform you that on February 8th, 2012, there will be a
renewed trial against four members of the Serbian Anarcho-Syndicalist
Initiative (ASI), as well as two unaffiliated Belgrade anarchists, as
part of the fabricated legal case of the Belgrade Six (BG6).
The six Belgrade libertarians have been accused of inciting, assisting
in and executing an attack on the Greek Embassy in Belgrade at the end
of August 2009, in solidarity with a hunger-striking Greek political
prisoner at the time (Thodoros Iliopoulos). Soon after the attack on
the embassy, BG6 (Tadej Kurepa, Ratibor Trivunac, Ivan Savic, Ivan
Vulovic, Nikola Mitrovic and Sanja Dojkic) were arrested and held in
custody for the next six months charged with ‘international terrorism’.
Thanks to a mass mobilization of support, both globally and locally,
they were released early before their trial date. In June 2010, they
were finally fully acquitted at a High Court in Belgrade, which decided
that there is no basis for a guilty verdict on any of the charges.
The prosecution filed a complaint, but the Court of Appeals failed to
respond until a moment when suitable political reasons emerged. Only
days after antimilitarist protests against the NATO summit that took
place in Belgrade in June 2011, at which Ratibor Trivunac was arrested,
the Court of Appeals granted the prosecution’s complaint and ruled on a
renewed case against BG6.
Currently, there are criminal proceedings against seven members of the
Belgrade local group of ASI and they are all politically motivated.
The renewal of the case against the BG6 can only be seen as the
continuation of state repression against those who stand up to pillage
and exploitation. Bearing in mind that Serbia is a peripheral
banana-state, ruled by a layer of compradorial bourgeoisie, it has been
shown that in this phase of the struggle, the greatest force against
the state repressive apparatus is INTERNATIONAL SOLIDARITY.
Therefore, we are calling all comrades and compañeras,
anarcho-syndicalists, revolutionary syndicalists and class struggle
anarchists everywhere to join in an international day of solidarity
with BG6, organized on February 6th globally in front of the embassies,
consulates and cultural institutions of the Republic of Serbia. The
protests should carry a clear demand for the ending of all legal
proceedings against the Belgrade libertarians and the dropping of
fabricated charges.
The freedom of our comrades depends largely on the activities of the
international libertarian movement, and we are convinced that
international solidarity will once again show its strength.
Freedom now to the BG6 and all prosecuted comrades!
Death to the State and capitalism!
The International Secretariat of ASI
