The close family of Marc Tarabella was present this Thursday evening in the municipal council room of Anthisnes: the son, Valentin, the daughter, Sophie, the sister, Manuela and Christiane, his 81-year-old mother, particularly moved. All said they were very touched by the presence of so many supporters. “Thank you all. We are united and we remain strong but if we did not have all this support, it would be even more difficult than it already is”, whispered her daughter, Sophie, her voice shaking as Marc Tarabella’s sister, Manuela, also insisted: “We bring all these elements back to him and it makes him very happy. He still has the same morale and keeps his humor. He telephones three times a day to his mother and at least once to all of us. We try to support it somehow even if we come up once morest hard things. We still had this hope today of being able to hold him in our arms… But there was this surprise prison strike. We went to Brussels for nothing.”
