A woman who last month said she
was held against her will by migrants in a reception centre in
Rome was arrested for shoplifting in the Italian capital Monday.
The woman, who was found with a bag full of stolen goods outside
a supermarket, has been placed under house arrest. Residents
staged a siege of the migrant centre on the night the woman said
she was held hostage, and an Eritrean man was stabbed but not
seriously injured. The siege was sparked when a woman went to
the centre to complain after a migrant allegedly threw stones at
some children.
