Prosecutors on Monday requested that
allegedly Ostia clan member Roberto Spada be jailed for eight
years, nine months for a brutal attack in November on two
members of a crew working for State broadcaster RAI in the Rome
seaside district.
The prosecutors requested the same term be handed down to
Spada's bodyguard, Ruben Nelson Del Puerto, for alleged criminal
injury and private violence aggravated by mafia methods.
While being asked about the Spadas' alleged support for
far-right group CasaPound, he head-butted and broke the nose of
RAI reporter Daniele Piervincenzi and also attacked cameraman
Edoardo Anselmi on November 7.
Anselmi suffered bruising on his back after being hit with a
stick.
