Members of the terrorist organization known as Conspiracy of the Cells of Fire (Synomosia ton Pirinon tis Fotias) wrote a text from inside Korydallos prison confirming plans for their escape organized in collaboration with fugitive terrorist Christodoulos Xiros that was captured on Saturday. The text, titled “It was worth a try…”, was posted online by the group that expresses its solidarity to “Manolis” (Mr. Xiros alias) of the Revolutionary 17 November Organization. Their note makes it clear that they will refuse to utter a word that would give information to the “enemy”.
Their note states that escape from prison is the only goal of an anarchist urban guerrilla held hostage, stating that escape contains the “condensed message of freedom that explodes prison walls that lock their lives.” They say that “each night the mind wanders to a world without jails, armed wardens and locked souls,” and state that “every failure, every arrest, and every mistake” serves to strengthen their fortitude.
Mr. Xiros’ plan was to blow up the walls of the 1st wing of Korydallos prison so that members of the organization could escape. The Anti-Terrorist Squad believes that this could have occurred with the aid of eight people who had knowledge in the operation of firearms and rockets.

“It was worth a try…”
We aren’t going to offer even a word that would unlock information to the enemy. Escape from prison is the only goal and destination of a revolutionary anarchist of the city being held hostage. The word ‘escape’ contains the condensed meaning of freedom that blows up prison walls that lock our souls. We, the hostages of the Conspiracy of the Cells of Fire, have never forgotten this word even though most have forgotten us. The judges condemned us to live for years as human shadows in locked buildings but they were unable to lock our disobedient desires.
Each night, as our mind wanders, we escape to a world without jails, armed wardens and locked souls. And even though every morning, the prison guards keys return us to the cement reality of jail, we know that at some point our day will come and we’ll dream of our anarchy with open eyes. The glang-glang of the keyhole whistles our hate for prison every time it closes. Every failure, every arrest and every mistake strengthens our fortitude even more. And even if we fall three times, four times, we’ll get up.
There is no victory or defeat, just struggle. We know that the anarchist urban guerrilla and the Conspiracy of the Cells of Fire is a battle against predictions. In this battle there may be lost weapons, explosives, hideouts, cars, money but all of them will be found again. What is never lost are the comrades who made us feel that our day will come so that we can say “goodbye” to prison without return.
At these moments when the enemy is triumphant, we send our warmest conspiratorial smile to these wonderful people, without name, who are now wanted by the police authorities of law and order. For these wonderful people, without a name, we spell it out again, the constant promise: “The day will come.”
STRENGTH AND SOLIDARITY TO THE PEOPLE WANTED IN THE CASE OF THE ATTEMPTED ESCAPE OF THE CONSPIRACY OF THE CELLS OF FIRE.
The Lernaia Hydra of the Cells of Fire will not stop.
The Conspiracy of the Cells of Fire will be back stronger than before.
