Justice Minister Andrea Orlando
told a security summit for the Jubilee Thursday that more
high-tech tools are needed to intercept potential terrorists.
He said capabilities must be bolstered, also with more
translators, and there must be greater cooperation among various
prosecutors' offices, with the help of the latest computer
technology.
Orlando said that Playstation chat was one of the "numerous
communication opportunities" that must be monitored for
terrorists.
"The use of Playstations has been flagged and so we have to
monitor all forms of messages with new tools," he said.
A "political battle" is meanwhile required to help set up
a new European anti-terror prosecutor's office, Orlando said.
"We are asking to set up a European anti-terror
prosecutor's office...but this is a minority position within the
EU," he said.
The Jubilee Holy Year of Mercy starts December 8 and runs
until November 20 next year.
