On July 20, 2004, the homes of six anarchists (Luigi Keller,
Stefano Tiberi, Lorenzo Jorg, Massimo Passamani, Mattia
Dossi, and Marco Beaco) were raided in Rovereto, Italy. They
were arrested and charged with aggravated assault relating to a
clash between anarchists and fascists on October 4, 2002.
On Friday, July 23, anarchists held a solidarity demonstration for
their imprisoned comrades. About 50 people attended, marching
to the jail where the anarchists are being held, carrying banners,
playing loud music, and spray-painting slogans on walls (such as
"the war is here also" and "freedom for the arrested, fire to the
jails") and painting over the lens of a journalist's camera, despite
the heavy police presence.

On the same day, the imprisoned anarchists gave a statement to
their lawyer indicating that they had begun a "shower and
exercise time" strike, that they are refusing to leave their cells to
pressure for an end to their isolation and their immediate release.

Anarchists in Rovereto are planning for further solidarity
activities.
