1000 Days Without Trial Or Bail For Umar Khalid, Denied Bail Despite False Allegations, Fabrications & Inconsistencies
PhD student Umar Khalid completes 1,000 days in jail without a trial, Article 14 revisited the fabrications, inconsistencies and conjectures that vitiate the Delhi riots conspiracy case but are still not enough for him to get bail because judges, as experts point out, interpret draconian laws in unyielding fashion. Police witnesses against the 35-year-old have been shown as unreliable, unproven allegations have been dropped, and the police have used partial truths and communally tainted arguments in his prosecution.

Because for the capitalist, no level of wealth will ever be enough.
So we are forced, under threat of #starvation, #homelessness and #imprisonment, to work the same or greater #productivity for ever-decreasing returns. And no amount of destruction of humans, or of the planet will be too much for them.
Because this economic system demands they strive for ever more profit, or they will lose their place and their businesses to someone else who accrues even more from the rest of us.

"Dragomirovic’s minimalistic setting captures the separation and struggle of Stevan and his loved ones."

@Seeley Don't get me wrong, I'm as vindictive as the next person, but I do recognize the issues with mass incarceration. #imprisonment as a means of#deterrence has fairly well been shown to not work (at least in our system). #imprisonment does lead to #incapacitation, which has been show to reduce crime, but is very expensive. So that leaves #retribution and #rehabilitation. Some people are violent creeps who should be isolated - to answer your question.

#Internat. Red Help call for a day of mobilization in #solidarity with #AlfredoCospito on hunger strike to the bitter end against #41bis and hostile life #imprisonment
"The 41bis is the harshest prison regime in #Europe. Created in principle to prevent members of the mafia from continuing their activities from prison, it was soon extended to revolutionary prisoners to prevent them from interacting with the outside world. Three prisoners of the Brigate Rosse-PCC, Nadia Lioce, Roberto Morandi and Marco Mezzasalma, have been subjected to this system for 17 years. The value of their resistance must be measured by the understanding that it would be enough for them to make an act of political surrender to get out of this regime.
Only by understanding these regimes of isolation as a means of pressure, as torture, to extort repentance, can we give its true meaning to the suicide of Brigate Rosse-PCC activist Diana Blefari in 2009, after four years in 41bis. Diana could no longer bear 41bis but refused to be betrayed. This choice was also a form of resistance, and it has a precedent, that of Luis Rodríguez Martínez, of the Anti-Fascist Resistance Groups of the First October (GRAPO), who committed suicide in 1983 after three years of total #prison isolation."
