Both comrades were sentenced to 16 years for the robbery in Pirgetos.
The court considered their beliefs to be proof enough.
In the series of trials with the CCF as the background, another 5-month
long trial closed, leaving unanswered questions concerning the way a
bank robbery was connected to this specific organization.
The prosecutors proposition gave an answer however which is not based on
a judicial judgement but on a clearly subjective judgement, and the
court decision “vindicated” the prosecutors proposition.
We remind that the two anarchist comrades G.Sarafoudis and G,Naxakis we
arrested in a cafe in Nea Filadelphia in 2013 together with anarchist
comrades A.Dalios and F.Harisis, the DNA of which was found, according
to the cops, on mostly mobile objects which from time to time have been
collected by the anti-terrorist force and which connects them to the
CCF. This is all according to police allegations.

There was even a “leaked” scenario about a terrorist attack they were
preparing, which however, because of the arrests was not carried out.
Anarchist G.Sarafoudis is also accused for the robbery in Filota, but
this robbery was separated and will be tried in a another trial. For the
robbery the court was satisfied with the dna sample on a mobile object,
while the informative note was not accompanied by the corresponding
analysis reports of dna, which were correlated in the indictment after a
few months.

During the trial there was no mention of the organization, but the
prosecutor said in her proposition: “in this case, no matters concerning
a terrorist organization and the investigation of these acts were
mentioned in the trial and the investigation of the crimes of theft,
robbery and illegal weapon possession. In addition, the relative
material was not delivered to the court for this specific case. But we
cannot ignore the fact that the accused have relation with the
anti-authoritarian anarchist movement. Making this reference, not for
any other reason, not for the criminal intentions of the ideas someone
embraces, which of course everyone is free to do, but because is seems
that at some point they will join the organization called CCF. This
means that acts are connected to this organization, car thefts, weapon
possession and bank robberies with the same style of action and method”.
-Participation in a terrorist organization
-Robbery with the faces covered
-Gun possession
-Grand theft auto
Thanasis Sarafoudis, father of comrade G.Sarafoudis, after the end of
the trial made this statement:
“It is an absurd, bizarre, but more than anything unfair decision.
Without any proof, as the prosecutor said in her closing statement, they
were found guilty of participation in a terrorist organization, without
there being a terrorist act. ‘Long Live the system’. Once more it tries
to close the mouths and marginalize those who resist, having a different
opinion from it.
I am not simply proud of my child. It is my honour to be his parent, and
that my children believe and fight for equality, justice and solidarity.
We will give our fight for vindication until the end”.
WE WILL STAND BESIDE OUR COMRADES
UNTIL THE COMPLETE DESTRUCTION OF ALL PRISONS
Anarchist comrades from act for freedom now!
