“I have to wonder what it means when peaceful demonstrations are banned, but not the demonstrations of fascists who pelt us with feces; when the basic idea of a democratic capacity for self-defense is censored and defamed and finds itself on the terror list”

Translation of Maja T.'s statement about starting a hunger strike: #FreeMaja #BudapestKomplex

Hunger Strike Statement

Maja T.
Budapest, 5 June 2025

My name is Maja. I was illegally extradited to Hungary almost a year ago. Since then, I have been held here in inhumane prolonged solitary confinement. Yesterday, on 4 June 2025, a decision was supposed to be made about my petition to be transferred to house arrest. That decision was postponed. My prior petitions to be transferred to house arrest have been rejected. I am no longer willing to endure this unbearable situation and wait for decisions from a judiciary that has systematically violated my rights again and again in recent months. For that reason, I am beginning a hunger strike today, 5 June 2025. I demand to be transferred back to Germany, to be able to return to my family, and to be able to participate in the trial in Hungary from my home.

I can no longer tolerate the prison conditions in Hungary. My cell was under 24-hour video surveillance for more than three months. For over seven months, I had to wear handcuffs any time I was outside my cell and sometimes inside my cell too, regardless of whether I was buying things, having Skype calls, or meeting with visitors. Officers conduct hourly visual inspections in my cell, including at night, which always means turning the lights on. I have to submit to body searches, during which I have to undress completely. Visits happened in separate rooms where a screen separated me from my family members, lawyers, and official representatives. The officers have left my cell in complete chaos after cell checks. The architecture prevents me from seeing sufficient daylight. The tiny courtyard is made of concrete and there is a grate across the top of it. I cannot control the temperature of the water in the shower. My cell is continuously overrun by bedbugs and cockroaches. I am not sufficiently provided with balanced and fresh food.

Additionally, I am in prolonged solitary confinement. No contact with other prisoners was possible at all for almost six months. Even now, I see and hear other people for less than an hour per day. This permanent deprivation of human contact is deliberately meant to do mental and bodily harm. That is why the European Prison Rules provide for “at least two hours of meaningful human contact a day”. That is why “prolonged solitary confinement” – the confinement of a prisoner for at least 22 hours a day for more than 15 days – is considered inhumane treatment or torture according to the Nelson Mandela Rules adopted by the United Nations. Here in Hungary, I have been buried alive in a prison cell, and this pre-trial detention can last up to three years in Hungary.

For these reasons, I should never have been extradited to Hungary. The Berlin court of appeals and the Special Commission “Linx” of the State Office of Criminal Investigations in Saxony planned and executed my extradition and in doing so very deliberately circumvented my lawyers and the Federal Constitutional Court of Germany. On 28 June 2024, a few hours after my instant-extradition, the Constitutional Court ruled that I could not be extradited for the time being. On 6 February 2025, it ruled that my extradition was illegal. To date, no one who took part in it has been held accountable. Thus far, there have been no reparations for me.

I would like my hunger strike to be a warning that no one else should be extradited to Hungary. Right now, that regard needs to go above all to Zaid from Nuremberg, who is very acutely under threat of extradition to Hungary. I declare my solidarity with all antifascists who are being prosecuted in the Budapest proceedings.

Gino, an antifascist the Hungarian gov's been after for alleged violence during Budapest's 2023 Nazi ComicCon ("Day of Honor" they call it), was arrested in Paris. Info's still scarce, but here's a translation of the initial post from the solidarity committee (BASC). www.basc.news/weitere-verh...

Another Arrest in the Budapest Complex
Antifascist Gino Was Arrested in Paris on 12 November 2024
On 12 November, Gino, an antifascist, was arrested in Paris on a European warrant. Having already eluded a court-ordered extradition from Finland by freeing himself from his ankle monitor, Gino has now been re-apprehended in France. At present, the exact circumstances of his arrest remain unclear. He is now faced with a new extradition request from Hungarian authorities and runs the risk of being handed over to Orbán’s authoritarian state.
Ilaria Salis, a European Parliamentary representative from Italy who spent time imprisoned in Hungary after she was also accused of participating in antifascist interventions during the 2023 “Day of Honor” in Budapest, expressed her solidarity on X, writing:
When he was three years old, Gino came to Italy, where he lived continuously for more than 20 years. But because of systemic racism in Italy, he was denied citizenship under the pretext of police reports for his serious engagement as an activist in the movement. For me, Gino is a companion, a friend, and a brother. But solidarity isn’t just a humane and personal matter. Above all, it is also political. Once again, the tyrant Orbán is trying to trample the values of antifascism and the rule of law under foot.
We also stand in solidarity with Gino and call for the immediate release of our comrades from prison! In Hungary, they are threatened with torturous conditions in the prisons and a political trial, as the experiences of antifascists who have already been incarcerated clearly show. Due to a racist judicial system and repression, we fear that Gino will experience additional violence and discrimination both in his extradition hearings in France and in his trial in Hungary.
We call on everyone to stop another extradition to Hungary! Whether in Germany or in France — Free All Antifas! Gino Libero!
