Hridindu has been transferred back to FCI Marion IL to finish his 90 month sentence after beating civil contempt charges for refusing to cooperate with a grand jury.

Hridindu Roychowdhury #51111-510
FCI Marion
PO BOX 1000
Marion, IL 62959
Flyer with picture of Hridindu and this text: Hridindu Roychowdhury is an anarchist from Madison, Wisconcin who was sentenced to 90 months in federal prison for attacking a building with a Molotov cocktail in the wake of the leak of the draft opinion in Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization, overruling Roe v. Wade. He targeted the building because it was occupied by an anti-choice organization (Wisconsin Family Action). Hridindu acknowledged spray-painting the message "If abortions aren't safe then you aren't either" on the outside of the building. No one was in the office at the time. He plead guilty on Dec. 1, 2023 and was ordered to pay nearly $32,000 in restitution, then was sent to FCI Marion to begin serving out the 7.5 year sentence. Flyer: "If abortions aren't safe, then you aren't either" and then the following text: In May 2025, Hridindu was sent back to Wisconsin to face a grand jury. He refused to snitch or cooperate and was then held in federal civil contempt at the same county jail he was held during the pretrial phase. For the next three months he stood firm and made it clear he wouldnt waver. It was at that point the judge ordered him to be released from contempt after a Grumbles motion was submitted, and he was then sent back to the federal prison. However, the time he spent back in Wisconsin in contempt will not count towards his sentence. Originally from the U.S. Southwest, Hridindu is a diligent academic and enjoyer of word puzzles. Earlier in federal detention, he had been keeping himself busy by taking courses in advanced mathematics, tutoring prisoners for their GED tests, and doing a dog training program. Letters mean so much to a political prisoner. Let's make sure Hridindu knows just how much support he has. And always keep in mind when writing to any political prisoner that all mail is monitored. Freedom for Hridindu! Freedom for all political prisoners!
