 WITH GEORGIA WE ARE TOGETHER - NOT IN THE COVERAGE OF EACH HURRY ---- On New

Year's Eve and while new prohibition measures have been put into general effect,
a gathering is organized in a luxury hotel in Thessaloniki, by well-known
restaurant owners of the city, as well as businessmen from Athens, during which
24-year-old Georgia Bika was drugged and gang-raped . She immediately reports the
incident to the police and names Manos Papadopoulos, one of the owners of the
company "Achillion" as the person who led her to the rapists and Vassilis
Leventis as one of her three rapists. The police, who from the beginning
"informed" the girl that she was going to "mess with a famous family", with the
sole aim of terrorizing her, finally arrested only the 27-year-old owner and
manager of the "Achillion" store. while the judicial authority orders the
immediate suspension of his detention by imposing restrictive conditions and
banning contact with the girl. She reports that she received threats from the
rapist's lawyer inside the police station, while she is forced to wait 3 days to
be examined by a medical examiner, and despite the fact that she complained of
drug addiction, I didn't even do blood tests on her, only when the substances
would no longer be were detectable. In the midst of all this, he is not asked to
testify for a period of 14 whole days.. One of the accused, Papadopoulos, after a
few days, admitted on social media his participation in the incident, saying that
he forced young girls to attend the hotel with result in one of them being
"mentally and physically exposed". Two days later the accused changes his "media"
testimony,

All the while, public opinion watches with disgust as a series of revelations
about the criminal activity of the foul ring involving scions of bourgeois
families, owners of "classy" shops, big businessmen and people of the night with
access and influence - because of its social and class status- to the police and
judicial authorities. These revelations are made through the action and
positioning of individuals and groups who attempt to break the fear, in complete
opposition and despite the wishes of the mainstream media, TV personalities and
various other late honorers of women's emancipation, while as a whole the
"institutional agencies" try to downplay, cover up and whitewash the specific
involved.

Just a few days ago the acquittal for the remaining accused rapist was published
- as all the others have already been acquitted. Let's not forget that the will
was based on and essentially accepted the proposal of prosecutor Kyriaki Kliabas,
who boldly stated that Georgia's statements are false and the complaint involves
fraud, so the case should be closed and sent to the archive. This management not
only exempts rapists from any charge, without conducting a comprehensive
investigation, but at the same time confirms the catalytic role of institutions
in cultivating, reproducing and covering up patriarchal violence. It legitimizes
the management of the cops,

The attitude of the cops does not surprise us. Exactly one year ago, an
18-year-old girl managed to escape from the hell she was experiencing, a prisoner
in the hands of a cop, who kept her locked up in his apartment in Ilioupoli,
tortured her, raped her and systematically extradited her. The girl, obviously
beaten, arrives at a cafe in Ilioupoli and finds help in the face of a working
waitress who stood by her side. From the moment the police are called, a new
torture begins for her. Instead of being taken immediately to a hospital, she
ends up at the police station for hours and then transferred to internal affairs,
in conditions that suggest interrogation and detention, without being allowed to
communicate with her lawyer, without any care and treatment for her injuries,
without psychological support.

Nor does the attitude of the judicial authorities come like a bolt from the blue.
It is the same authorities who murdered Jacques again in the courtroom, who
"softened" the murderers of Dimopoulos and Hortarias, (who was released a few
days ago) by refusing to change the charge to murder, who acquitted the policemen
- and in in their face the state violence - which constituted him by kicking him
to the ground while he was already half-dead and handcuffed. And the same ones
who acquitted the sailing coach of the charge of rape against the student Amalia
at the age of 10-14, limiting the charge to carelessness, with the argument that
"rape exists when the act is done against the victim's will,

At the same time, in the trial of the pedophile Lignadis, his victims are
subjected to humiliating treatment and intimidation, while the defense rhetoric
expressed both by Lignadis himself and by his lawyer A.Kouias reaches extremely
high levels of vulgarity, while of course he uses up to the acquittal in
Georgia's rape case. The judicial mechanisms of "justice", a class and
patriarchal "justice", which are there to prosecute and imprison every fighter
and fighter, which condemn thousands of the poor and marginalized to imprisonment
in prison graves, are part of a system that promotes the social cannibalism,
patriarchal and generally authoritarian violence, protecting the powerful and
their crimes, terrorizing and throwing into the fire of cannibalism as many as
dare to resist. And this is also evident through the development in a series of
court cases in the last period as well. They release the murderous cop Korkoneas,
put Zach's killers on the loose, get Philippidis out of jail, free the rapists of
Georgia and Amalia, while at the same time they are there to prosecute and
imprison every competitor, applying a special exemption status for political
prisoners as in the case of the anarchist G.Michailidis who is currently on
hunger strike since 23/05 demanding his release from prison which should have
been done since December and to sentence thousands to imprisonment in prison
graves poor and marginalized.

We have no confidence in civil justice, since it is not the first time that it
covers up and lets rapists go free while consistently and repeatedly trying to
degrade, bury or handle these cases based on patriarchal stereotypes. Because
what arms the hands of rapists and murderers, and washes away their crimes is an
entire system, which has a name and is called patriarchy, the state and
capitalism. The perpetrators are nurtured, encouraged, armed and ultimately
covered and justified by the dominant values and the mechanisms themselves. Why
gender-based violence is systemic violence and an integral part of state and
capitalist brutality

JUSTICE WILL BE DECIDED ON THE STREETS AGAINST STATE AND PATRIARCHY!

While since the previous year we continue to count femicides, abuses & rapes on
an almost daily basis, the patriarchy comes again to remind us that it rapes,
oppresses and murders! It is the constant reminder that at any moment, we as
women, because of our gender or our sexuality, can become objects of oppression.
Within a patriarchally structured society, the social legitimization of
gender-based violence crystallizes either in the acceptance of
oppressive-dominant behaviors or in the concealment of such incidents, especially
if the status of the rapists allows or even imposes it.

PATRIARCHY IS POWER AND POWER RUSHES AND KILLS!

None alone - None less - None abused, raped, scared! We all stand together and go
out on the road of struggle. We stand in solidarity with each other, hand in hand
and fight for the elimination of gender oppression and all forms of power. For us
it is obvious that the road to the elimination of patriarchy and gender violence
goes through the struggle for women's emancipation, a total struggle against the
state, capital and all forms of power. So we fight to destroy every form of
exploitation of man by man and shout with our sisters around the world that no
murder and no abuse will go unanswered, that our collective voice can break all
chains and throw down all walls. Let's shout that no woman who fights is alone
and we will all fight together until we manage to make the flame a fire and burn
the rotten authoritarian patriarchy to the ground. Until we build a world in
which no one and none of us will be left out, a world that will contain all the
worlds.
