A 23-year-old Egyptian national
got four years and eight months in jail Wednesday for hitting a
Carabiniere during an anti-fascist protest against neo-fascist
group CasaPound in Piacenza on February 10.
Moustafa Elshennawi was found guilty of brutally hitting
brigadier Luca Belvedere with a riot shield he had snatched off
him.
The sentence was what prosecutors had requested.
Elshennawi remains in jail.
The February clashes took place in the historic centre of the
Emilian city.
