From 1947 to 1953, during the civil war and post-civil war, camps for exiled women operated in our country. These women, whether they were convicts, undertrials, or exiles, suffered twice and three times more than the men. Several of them had their children with them, others gave birth in exile, and faced, in addition to torture, rape and attempted rape, humiliation.

Human life was cheap in those days. A fog of terror prevailed, with no moral barriers, with terrorism, exile, isolation, prisons and executions for a statement of renunciation.
 
At the beginning of 1950, 1,200 women were transferred to Makronisos, those who had not “conformed” and had not signed a statement. They were transported on a ferry, they were locked in the hold and with the rough seas the children were crying, the tuberculous ones had blood drops, vomiting, nausea and for food they were given half a herring and some water.
 
In the hell of Makronissos, they piled 40 women per stage and every day the Alphamites entered the stage with the glop, whatever time it was, even at night when they were sleeping, and beat them mercilessly, young and old, other women lost their hearing from the wood, some had fractures, serious blows to the head, others were crippled. About half the women signed.
In the summer of the same year, due to the 1950 elections, they released some elderly women and the seriously injured, the rest were taken back to Trikeri.
