The reasons in the provision with which the minister rejected the request for the revocation of the 41 bis to the anarchist. "Cospito isn't sick, he's in a precarious state of health", he uses protest as a weapon. His lawyer: 'The northern justice minister' is almost sure he will die in prison' (ANSA)


"The prisoner's ability to direct the struggle initiatives of the anarcho-insurrectionist galaxy towards ever more relevant strategies and objectives remains unchanged"

.

This is what the Minister of Justice,

Carlo Nordio, writes in the provision with which he rejected the request for revocation of the harsh prison sentence for Alfredo Cospito

, presented by the defender, Flavio Rossi Albertini.

"Alfredo Cospito has begun a hunger strike, a traditionally non-violent form of protest which instead, in the present case, has taken on an absolutely opposite meaning.

The proof can be drawn from a sentence pronounced by Cospito: 'the body is my weapon' .

The body of Alfredo Cospito has become the catalyst that served the strategic action of the prisoner who asked for unity of purpose and objectives while leaving each formation the freedom and self-determination in relation to the type of deeds to be performed". Nordio in the provision rejecting the revocation of 41 bis.

Cospito must remain at 41 bis.

The minister rejects the request - Chronicle

The anarchist, who has been on hunger strike for over 100 days, must remain in the harsh prison regime.

According to the Keeper of the Seals "there are no grounds for revocation".

All the judicial authorities have judged the reasons given by the defense to be groundless (ANSA)

Already on February 3 it had emerged that the 55-year-old had decided not to undergo a psychiatric visit

.

And in the past few hours another refusal has come from him.

In fact, the state of fasting of a prisoner can hypothetically be interrupted, on the decision of the judges, through forced feeding, when the person is unconscious or when it has been ascertained that that behavior derives from a psychic pathology.

Cospito, among other things, has already filed a statement with the Dap in which he asks not to be subjected to forced feeding in the event that he is in a state of unconsciousness.

"We are in the presence not of a person affected by a chronic disabling pathology but of a healthy and lucid subject who is voluntarily procuring a precarious state of health for ideological purposes,

persevering in his conduct despite repeated invitations from the authorities health care to desist from maintaining this self-injurious conduct" specifies the Keeper of the Seals.

"Thank you, I expected it."

With these words, Alfredo Cospito commented with his lawyer on Minister Nordio's no to the request for revocation of article 41-bis. 

"I almost assume" that he dies.

Thus Alfredo Cospito's lawyer, Flavio Rossi Albertini, speaking of the conditions of his assisted him on hunger strike for over 110 days against the 41-bis regime to which he is detained

.

"But is it possible that in 2023 an anarchist could die in prison?" asks the lawyer. 

"He will suspend the hunger strike only when the 41-bis law is revoked" and not if a parliamentary debate on the harsh prison regime is simply launched

.

Thus Flavio Rossi Albertini, speaking of the conditions of his client on hunger strike for over 110 days.

"It's not a fake hunger strike - he adds -, it's not a simulation".
