Die Prozessliste für den 1.9. ist raus: 23 Verfahren, über 50 Angeklagte. Das Gericht arbeitet von 9-15 Uhr. Jede*r kann selbst ausrechnen, wie viel Zeit – Minuten! – offensichtlich pro Verfahren angesetzt sind – Verfahren, in denen über jahrzehntelange Haft entschieden wird.

🥳 Yesterday, four individuals from Sudan were acquitted of all smuggling charges by the court of Heraklion, Crete.

The lawyers of the first case from an NGO successfully argued that he is a refugee fleeing war and must not be criminalized for taking on tasks during his own journey. 1/7

Der Fall des 17-jährigen Hani verdeutlicht besonders die Gewalt europ. Schleuser-Gesetze: Kind, Kriegsflüchtling, Opfer von Menschenhandel – nobody cares. In kolonialer Kontinuität schafft Europa erneut eine Gruppe von Menschen, denen selbst das Recht, Rechte zu haben, verwehrt wird.

#AllEyesOnCrete − Hani’s case is a particularly brutal example of the violence and injustice of anti-smuggling laws that punish people for seeking safety. These laws are the real crime, and a continuation of Europe’s colonial legacy. 1/8

Update on today's trial👇

Today in Crete, we witnessed the trials of boys who had fled Sudan only to be treated not as people exercising their right to move, but as “criminals" accused of "smuggling".

⭕ None of their cases were heard; all the trials were postponed until November and December.

We must create visibility & show solidarity!

➡️If you’re on Crete — come to the trial, stand with the boys, and show the court we are watching!

➡️If you’re anywhere else — share this post, spread the word, make noise for the boys and against this mass incarceration! 5/5
