A prosecutor in Agrigento
who is probing Interior Minister Matteo Salvini for allegedly
kidnapping Eritrean migrants on board the Diciotti coast guard
ship was sent a letter containing threats and a military bullet
on Wednesday.
"You louse, you're in the crosshairs," said a part of the
message to Luigi Patronaggio, who is probing Salvini for
refusing to let the migrants land until the EU agreed to take
them.
The envelope bore the symbol of Gladio, the former secret
paramilitary 'stay-behind' organisation close to far-right
circles.
After a 10-day stand-off Italy's bishops agreed to take some
100 of the 150 migrants with Ireland and Albania taking 20 each.
