Updates concerning anarchist prisoner Toby Shone

From Il Rovescio, Via Act for Freedom Now!

December 20 2022

We receive and spread:

On the day of December 28th the “antiterrorism” unit of the British police will pick him up from Parc prison where he is presently locked up to take him to the ‘semi-open’ detention structure to do the last two years of his sentence. The restrictions that will be imposed on him are particularly severe and consist of semi-open detention: no possibility of contact with the other prisoners, a night curfew from 9pm to 7am, during which he cannot leave the structure, free exit during the rest of the day, but with an obligation to return to report at12 midday and 5pm.

During his free time he is forbidden to attend political demonstrations and meetings, or to associate with those generically defined/defined ‘left-wing extremists’. He will not be able to write on websites and will only be able to connect to the Internet at approved times and in a predetermined place. He will be able to have at most one mobile phone with a SIM card, which will be monitored. He will not be able to delete the history of his phone or computer.

He will be forced to undergo psychological or psychiatric sessions, and he is absolutely forbidden to speak about his situation or to denounce those involved in it by name. Toby’s lawyers are preparing an appeal against these restrictions, which of course are not the norm in such cases, but they will be in force until the final outcome of the application.

In addition to these updates Toby informs us that:

(PRISONERS WROTE THE SLOGAN “FREE ANNA – FREE COSPITO. SOCIAL WAR” ON THE B1-B2 YARD, IN SOLIDARITY WITH THE IMPRISONED COMRADES. HMP PARC)

Toby is continuing his refusal of obligatory work and food (two days a week) in solidarity with Alfredo and Anna, and is keen to let it be known that he is in good spirits.
