The anarchist prisoner Umut Firat (imprisoned for 23 years) has passed Day 50 of his hunger strike. Recently, Unut was transferred to prison number 4 Yenisakran, type T (according to the security levels of the Turkish prison system) in Izmir itself. (see address below).
Body searches at the hands of regime guards, and prison conditions are some of his grounds for protest. The demands of the prisoners, the repression and torture suffered daily, are ignored.
Conditions of detention in Turkey, especially since the failed coup, have worsened significantly. Prisoners sleep in groups of 19 in cells that fit 14, are forced to sleep on blood-stained beds, only two visits of 45 minutes are allowed every month….

Translation of Umut’s statement http://anarsistfaaliyet.org/
18 Ocak 2017 “Yesterday, at a time when the tears have not dried and the rage has not settled yet for the cities burned down to rubble with tanks and bombing, hundreds of people killed, thousands of old, young, children, women and men wounded and unhoused; the images of the perpetrators being awarded medals are alive in our memories; when the tanks and planes which burned down the cities and killed the people targeted in Ankara and Istanbul on July 15, yesterday’s heroes were declared traitors overnight.
Thousands of people were stuffed into prisons, tens of thousands lost their jobs. The practice of reciprocal coups which is a manifestation of a power struggle at the top of power, revealed the dirty face of the state.
The relationship is between the gangs, cult, sects that organized inside the state with their soldiers, police, allegedly independent judges from the Supreme Court to the chancery, prosecutors and all the bureaucracy, and the 15 year old racist, nationalist, fundamentalist and sectarian government which used them for their power.
However, the government started to organize its counter coup to cement its power despite being responsible for all that’s been suffered, and boosted the process of assigning guardians ad litem (court appointees), to companies for change of capital, to newspapers and TV channels for change of idea, municipalities and parties for change of politics, and increased its oppression against all social opposition.
While governing with delegated legislation, it is carrying the masses that it manipulated with war horns, and is about to turn all this geography into a sea of blood for its power, ambitions and madness.
As a human, Revolutionary Anarchist, Conscientious/Total Objector, an individual who has spent 23 years in a cell under the darkness of a dungeon, I see that all entities of capitalist, statist, nationalist, fundamentalist, sectarian and patriarchal power structure are responsible for all this.
I have started a hunger strike, to draw attention to all this, before and after, to emphasize that new forms of struggle and social opposition have to be organized, and to reflect my own political, moral and conscientious attitude.”
Revolutionary Anarchist prisoner and Anarchist Meydan Newspaper writer Umut Fırat Suvariogullari, was “transferred ” from Izmir Buca Prison to Izmir Yenisakran T Type Prison number 4, has passed 50 days of his hunger strike.
Considering what has been lived through in the place of oppression and cruelty, the prisons, the changes and events during the state of emergency are no surprise. Revolutionary Anarchist Umut Fırat, was searched naked during acceptance procedures, resisted because his body was touched without volition, and received communication punishment for resistance.
Besides his Revolutionary Anarchist identity being ignored, he was placed with 19 persons in a 14 person cell, forced to sleep on torn beds with blood, forced to stay for years under holding cell conditions of police stations.
Revolutionary prisoners continue to live under these conditions choked by bureaucracy and deprivation by the newly appointed staff during the state of emergency, creating a prison inside prison, where open visits are twice a month and only 45-50 minutes, petitions are ignored, repression and torture are continuous.

The conditions that Revolutionary Anarchist prisoner Umut Fırat Suvariogullari is exposed to today, are the conditions that all revolutionary prisoners are exposed to during the state of emergency.
Umut Fırat Suvariogullari, who is on hunger strike to defend his Revolutionary Anarchist identity and demand sustainable living conditions, is continuing his struggle against all these conditions, becoming free with his resistance.
We salute his struggle!
Revolutionary hearts will destroy the cells!
Comrade Umut Fırat is not alone!
