PRESS RELEASE from COMMUNIST PARTY of GREECE (marxist - leninist)

Immediate and without terms release of Thodoris Iliopoulos

CPG-ml calls all workers and youths and every progressive person to take active part in the various mobilisations and actions that are taking place all over the country demanding the immediate release of Thodoris Iliopoulos who is today, 20 August, in his 42nd day of hunger strike at the Koridalos Prison’s hospital (Translator’s note: according to postings on Athens IMC he is now in a public hospital, Attiko, but the struggle for his release continues) with serious danger for permanent damage to his health.

On the face of Thodoris Iliopoulos, with months-long detention (Translator’s note: since December 2008), that was recently extended (Translator’s note: by six months while he was in hunger strike by 10 July 2009), the court authorities and behind them the government and the police repression forces, seek to take revenge for the insurrectionary youth of last-year December. They will get the answer they deserve for from a new more powerful popular and workers struggle and the solidarity movement to the hunger striker.
