The number of people under
investigation for clashes between police and anti-Fascist
protesters in which a Carabiniere was hurt in Piacenza Saturday
has risen from two to seven, sources said Tuesday. As well as
the two organisers, who are accused of instigation to commit
crimes and breaking a public-safety law, there are five young
people, none of the resident in the Emilian city, who are
accused of other street-fighting offences, police said. It is
not clear whether the five are accused of attacking Carabiniere
officer Luca Belvedere and breaking his shoulder, sources said.
The anticapitalist and anarchist squatters from so-called
'social centres' were protesting the opening in Piacenza of a
chapter of neo-Fascist group CasaPound.
