A ballistics report regarding a shot
fired from a gun that injured a man at a party on New Year's Eve
points the finger at the Italian MP who owns the weapon,
Emanuele Pozzolo, according to reports in daily newspapers La
Repubblica, il Corriere della Sera and La Stampa on Wednesday.
Pozzolo is under investigation over the accidental shooting in
the town of Rosazza and has been suspended from Premier Giorgia
Meloni's Brothers of Italy (FdI) party.
He says that, although he owns the gun, it was not him who fired
it.
The shot injured in the thigh Luca Campana, the partner of the
daughter of the bodyguard of Justice Undersecretary Andrea
Delmastro, who was also at the party.
Campana said he saw Pozzolo rest the mini revolver on a table
just before the shot went off.
The ballistics report confirms this version of events, on the
basis of the bullet's trajectory and power that was found on the
table, among other things, the dailies said.
