A marble slab put up on the
outskirts of Agrigento by the parents of Rosario Livatino, a
magistrate slain by the Mafia in 1990, was found damaged on
Tuesday. The stele is located in the spot where Livatino lost
his life to Cosa Nostra. Earlier this month a statue of Giovanni
Falcone, a magistrate killed by the Mafia in 1992, was found
decapitated outside a Palermo school named after him.
"We have opened a probe into a case that I must describe as
worrying," said Agrigento Chief Prosecutor Luigi Patronaggio. He
said "we will follow all leads, and we certainly can't rule out
the Mafia one". Premier Paolo Gentiloni tweeted "Italy is
united, honour to judge Livatino".
