Doctors apparently want to intervene because T. is at risk of organ damage.</p><p>-Maja T., a non-binary person accused in Hungary, is to have a pacemaker implanted, according to reports from Maja T.'s circle. According to reports, doctors have determined that T.'s heart rate has temporarily dropped to 30. The defendant has been on hunger strike for more than a month to protest "inhumane treatment in pre-trial detention" and is demanding her transfer to Germany.<br>T. is part of a group of activists from Germany and Italy who allegedly beat Hungarian neo-Nazis with sticks in 2023, according to the Hungarian public prosecutor's office. T. did not comment on the specific allegations, but stated at the start of the trial that the indictment documents she had received contained "not a single word" "that outlines my life, my personality, and is based on facts." Maja T. refused to plead guilty.</p><p>Just a few days ago, the defendant was taken to a prison hospital in southeastern Hungary because her health was deteriorating. Now, according to sources close to Maja T., doctors there are demanding a transfer to a civilian hospital. Only there is a 24-hour electrocardiogram (ECG) possible. This is to examine the heart, because otherwise there is a risk of organ damage. The transfer to a civilian hospital would also mean that the inmate would have to be confined to bed, it is feared.<br>Maja T.'s father, Wolfram Jarosch, told SPIEGEL: "Maja must not be tied to the bed. That would be a cruel and unnecessary coercive measure." Furthermore, "under no circumstances should a pacemaker be implanted against T.'s will." This would not help either, as the low heart rate is a result of the hunger strike.</p><p>According to the Hungarian public prosecutor's office, T. faces up to 24 years in prison. The transfer of the detainees from Germany to Hungary in the summer of 2024 was subsequently declared unlawful by the Federal Constitutional Court. There is repeated criticism from the EU that Hungary disregards the principles of the rule of law. This week, the EU Commission stated in its new Rule of Law Report that Hungary is making no progress in addressing deficiencies in the rule of law.<br>Politicians for extradition to Germany<br>Prominent politicians such as Green Party MP Katrin Göring-Eckardt and EU Left Party leader Martin Schirdewan are therefore demanding that T. be extradited back to Germany for a fair trial. "The Foreign Office must urgently bring an end to the solitary confinement and ensure Maja's return to Germany," Jarosch demands again.<br>In response to a written question from Green Party member of the Bundestag Helge Limburg, the German government recently stated: "The case of Maja T. was raised at a high level with the Hungarian government."<br>Right-wing Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni had called Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán in the case of an Italian woman accused in the same case. Afterward, the sentence was reduced.</p><p>in German below</p><p><a href="https://archive.is/nzRrB" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">archive.is/nzRrB</span><span class="invisible"></span></a></p>

This is the 32nd day of the hunger strike. According to supporters, eye movement disorders have now been observed, suggesting that she has entered the "ocular phase" of the hunger strike (more details on the hunger phases can be found in our post from June 25). This suggests that Maja has reached an acutely life-threatening condition.</p><p>According to reports, doctors at the Hungarian prison hospital stated that they do not feel bound by Maja's advance directive, which explicitly excludes forced feeding. We would like to put this into context below:</p><p>Force-feeding occurs repeatedly around the world, especially among prisoners on hunger strike. This deprives prisoners, who already have very limited options for protest, of their last means of protest, for example, against prison conditions, and of control over their own bodies.</p><p>Medicine worldwide has a clear principle of decision-making called "informed consent." Doctors do not make the decision themselves; instead, they inform their patients about all the options and risks so that they can make an informed decision about their own bodies. Of course, this has its limits, for example when a person is unconscious. In this case, the person's presumed wishes must be followed. Living wills, authorized representatives, and relatives can all help determine this. There are also exceptions for situations in which patients are no longer able to make decisions for themselves due to their cognitive state, or where there are other risks, such as mental illness or in the case of children. A further limitation is that, of course, no doctor is forced to carry out medically pointless measures just because a patient absolutely wishes it.</p><p>This principle must also be fully applied during a hunger strike, so that the person on hunger strike can make their own decisions about their body. In order to ensure that legally sound documentation of the hunger striker's wishes is available in all eventualities, we recommend, if possible, contacting medical professionals who are in solidarity and who can supervise the hunger strike as early as possible.</p><p>Forced treatment, especially forced feeding, of hunger strikers is thus fundamentally contrary to the basic principle of "informed consent" and contradicts the rules of medical practice. The fact that it continues to occur with medical involvement to this day has prompted the World Medical Association (WMA) to issue several clear statements prohibiting all doctors worldwide from forcing forced treatment of hunger strikers. After the Tokyo Declaration of 1975 prohibited doctors from any involvement in torture and humiliation, which the WMA clearly includes forced feeding, the Malta Declaration of 1991 established detailed regulations for the medical treatment of hunger strikers, which have been repeatedly revised and tightened due to persistent, prohibited forced feeding. The current version states, among other things:<br>“All kinds of interventions for enteral or parenteral feeding against the will of the mentally competent hunger striker are “to be considered as “forced feeding”. Forced feeding is never ethically acceptable. Even if intended to benefit, feeding accompanied by threats, coercion, force or use of physical restraints is a form of inhuman and degrading treatment. Equally unacceptable is the forced feeding of some detainees in order to intimidate or coerce other hunger strikers to stop fasting.”</p><p>The World Medical Association consists of 115 professional associations of physicians around the world. Its declarations are binding for its members and the physicians in their respective countries. For Germany, the German Medical Association is a member of the WMA, as is the Hungarian Medical Association (Magyar Orvosi Kamara). However, unlike the German Medical Association, the latter has limited powers and influence. Doctors' self-government with disciplinary powers, as exists in Germany, does not exist in Hungary. This makes it easier for authorities in Hungary to influence medical decisions and thus enforce treatments that contradict medical practice and human rights. That things can be done differently is demonstrated by a 2010 case in which a court in Switzerland ordered forced feeding during a hunger strike. At the time, the doctors in charge refused to carry out the forced feeding, citing the regulations of the Swiss medical profession, which are based on the Malta Declaration.</p><p>in German below</p><p><a href="https://demosanitaeter.com/zwangsbehandlung-bei-einem-hungerstreik/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">demosanitaeter.com/zwangsbehan</span><span class="invisible">dlung-bei-einem-hungerstreik/</span></a></p>

They would act if Maja's condition worsened, regardless of Maja's stated wishes.</p><p>This attitude clearly contradicts the ethical guidelines clearly formulated by the World Medical Association in the Malta Declaration. Furthermore, forced treatment against a patient's will would constitute a criminal offense in Germany.</p><p>We therefore call again and with great urgency:</p><p> Maja must be able to speak confidentially, i.e., face-to-face, with an independent doctor in German or with the assistance of an interpreter, and be examined by them. This is important so that Maja can correctly understand and classify the findings.<br> The Foreign Office must intervene immediately, not only through the embassy but also at the highest level.</p><p>A tragedy is looming that can still be prevented. This doesn't require special rights or privileges, but rather adherence to internationally valid rules, formally signed by Hungary, as well as respect for fundamental and human rights. And it needs a foreign minister who will finally actively defend the constitutional principles of Germany and Europe, and thus Maja's dignity.</p><p>Solidarity Committee for Maja's Hunger Strike</p><p>Jena, July 5, 2025</p><p>in German below</p><p><a href="https://www.basc.news/ungarische-gefaengnisaerzte-stellen-zwangsbehandlung-in-den-raum-majas-zustand-verschlechtert-sich/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">basc.news/ungarische-gefaengni</span><span class="invisible">saerzte-stellen-zwangsbehandlung-in-den-raum-majas-zustand-verschlechtert-sich/</span></a></p>

MikeDunnAuthor<p>Today in Labor History May 5, 1981: Bobby Sands (1954-1981) died, ending his 66-day hunger strike. Sands was an Irish political prisoner and member of Parliament who had been locked up in the notoriously brutal Maze Prison near Belfast. The strike was an attempt to get the British government to grant political prisoner status to Nationalist inmates, rather than treating them as common criminals. </p><p><a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/workingclass" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>workingclass</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/LaborHistory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>LaborHistory</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/irish" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>irish</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/republican" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>republican</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/IRA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>IRA</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/BobbySands" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>BobbySands</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/HungerStrike" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>HungerStrike</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/maze" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>maze</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/prison" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>prison</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/PoliticalPrisoner" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>PoliticalPrisoner</span></a></p>

Μια σαφή και διαφανή εξήγηση, σε γλώσσα που μπορώ να καταλάβω, σχετικά με τους λόγους για τον παρατεταμένο και άνισο χειρισμό της διαδικασίας ασύλου μου. <br><br>Β. Να εξεταστεί η αίτησή μου για άσυλο από αμερόληπτη επιτροπή, υπό την επίβλεψη της Ύπατης Αρμοστείας των Ηνωμένων Εθνών για τους Πρόσφυγες (UNHCR). <br><br>Γ. Να μου χορηγηθεί άδεια ταξιδιού που μου επιτρέπει να μεταφερθώ σε χώρα της Βόρειας Ευρώπης όπου έχω δημιουργήσει οικογενειακές και κοινωνικές σχέσεις. <br><br>Σημείωση: Εάν υπάρχουν αμφιβολίες σχετικά με τη νομιμότητα αυτής της απεργίας πείνας - η οποία περιλαμβάνει μόνο την κατανάλωση νερού και καφέ - είμαι ανοιχτός να υποβληθώ σε ιατρική εξέταση. <br><br>Με ειλικρίνεια, Μεσούτ Αϊντίν Τηλ: +30 699 318 6905<br><br>Whom It May Concern<br><br>Subject: Formal Declaration of Fast Death Strike – Phillipiada Refugee Camp (April 9, 2025)<br><br>I hereby formally declare that as of April 9, 2025, I have commenced a fast death strike in the form of a death fast at the location referred to as the refugee camp in Phillipiada, Arta. I will not accept any medical or nutritional interventions intended to sustain life.<br><br>Reason for the Fast Death Strike:<br><br>Having survived decades of torture under the Turkish state, I sought protection under the asylum rights granted by the United Nations and applied for asylum in Greece. <br><br>Since I have close family members and acquaintances residing in Northern Europe, I requested permission to transit to one of those countries.<br><br>However, for the past 22 months:<br><br>I have been subjected to various dehumanizing and isolating practices. <br><br>My sense of orientation has been deeply affected; I no longer have a clear understanding of where I am. Other than the use of an Android phone (whose authenticity I cannot even confirm), I have been deprived of all means to contact my relatives and friends. <br><br>For 22 months, I have lived in a state of uncertainty and mental dislocation, repeatedly asking myself, “Where am I?”<br><br>My asylum application has been pending for 22 months without resolution, and no timeline or justification has been provided.<br>Therefore, I respectfully request the following:<br><br>A. A clear and transparent explanation, in a language I can understand, regarding the reasons for the prolonged and unequal handling of my asylum procedure.<br><br>B. That my asylum application be reviewed by an impartial commission, under the supervision of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR).<br><br>C. That I be granted a travel permit allowing me to transfer to a Northern European country where I have established family and social connections.<br><br>Note: If there are any doubts concerning the legitimacy of this hunger strike—which involves only the consumption of water and coffee—I am open to undergoing a medical examination.<br><br>Sincerely,<br><br>Mesut Aydin<br> </span><a href="https://electricrequiem.com/tags/Antireport" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Antireport</a><span> # </span><a href="https://electricrequiem.com/tags/SolidarityWithMigrants" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#SolidarityWithMigrants</a><span> </span><a href="https://electricrequiem.com/tags/HungerStrike" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#HungerStrike</a><span> </span><a href="https://electricrequiem.com/tags/MesutAydin" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#MesutAydin</a></p>
MikeDunnAuthor<p>Today in Labor History March 31, 1927: Birth of Cesar Chavez. In 1965, Chavez led farm workers in California on their first grape boycott. The nationwide protest lasted five years and ended with the first union contract for U.S. farm workers outside of Hawaii. In 1966, Chavez’s organization officially became the United Farm Workers. Chavez was inspired by the nonviolent civil disobedience of Gandhi. In addition to strikes, boycotts and pickets, he was famous for going on hunger strikes. Later he became infatuated with the religious cult, Synanon. He used Synanon’s “game” to punish union members and enforce conformity. Chavez also supported the brutal Filipino dictator Ferdinand Marcos. This alienated Filipino members of the union, as well as many of the religious organizations that had supported the UFW.</p><p><a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/LaborHistory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>LaborHistory</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/workingclass" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>workingclass</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/CesarChavez" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>CesarChavez</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/FarmWorkers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>FarmWorkers</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/ufw" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ufw</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/chicano" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>chicano</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/mexicanamerican" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>mexicanamerican</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/union" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>union</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/strike" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>strike</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/boycot" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>boycot</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/filipino" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>filipino</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/hungerstrike" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>hungerstrike</span></a></p>

Following Sands’ success the British Government introduced the Representation of the People Act 1981, which prevented prisoners serving jail terms of more than one year in either the UK or the Republic of Ireland from being nominated as candidates in UK elections. This law was quickly introduced so in order to prevent the other hunger strikers from being elected to the British parliament. 2/2
