KKE (m-l): The revolutionary fighter Professor G.N. Saibaba will never be forgotten!
We hereby share a statement on GN Saibaba that we have received.
Τhe Indian regime is guilty for torturously murdering him!
On the night of October 12th the heart of a revolutionary fighter, who literally devoted his whole life and his crippled body to the defence of the rights of millions of poor and outcasts in India, and fought tirelessly for their national and social liberation, stopped beating. Crippled Professor G.N. Saibaba was 57 years old and managed to live only seven months at liberty after his release from prison. He was trying, with the help of doctors, to make a basic recovery from the severe health effects of the long imprisonment to which the reactionary Indian regime had subjected him.
The professor who fought against social discrimination, injustice and oppression against the majority of Indians — especially the indigenous tribes and the Adivasis — was considered internal enemy number one. He was persecuted and sentenced to life imprisonment on fabricated evidence. He was imprisoned in the harshest prisons and tortured, considering his physical disability as well.
Although the Indian mainstream media presents his death as natural, all progressive people in India and around the world know that the death of Saibaba is a murder, which was caused by the imprisonment and inhumane conditions he faced for more than 8 years; and the perpetrator of this murder is the reactionary Indian regime and the governments of the right-wing Modi.
In Greece there was a great wave of solidarity with the imprisoned militant and his release a few months ago was considered a victory for the entire international movement of support for political prisoners in India. Professor Saibaba had visited Greece and had spoken at events of internationalist solidarity. He will remain unforgettable, and his memory will follow us in our struggles for social liberation and socialism. We send our deepest condolences to his wife, his daughter, to his comrades in India and to the international movement of solidarity for political prisoners.
