The Italian State on Tuesday
dropped an appeal against a symbolic one-euro damages payment to
the family of Davide Cervia, a cyberwars expert and army
sergeant who was kidnapped 28 years ago.
The damages were ordered by a court which said the family's
rights to the truth had been breached.
Defence Minister Elisabetta Trenta said Tuesday she
"recognised the errors of the State, towards a family that
deserves respect and truth".
Cervia disappeared mysteriously in Velletri in 1990.
It was later shown that he was kidnapped.
