Unknown vandals made a fresh attack
on vehicles used by Rome's gardens services Wednesday, city
environment committee chair Danele Diaco said. In a few weeks,
he said after the attack in Villa Lazzaroni, there had now been
"numerous episodes of damage to the Rome council gardens
services vehicles". Diaco noted that one of the branches of the
sprawling Capital Mafia probe concerned the infiltration of the
gardens services by a criminal organisation led by former
rightist militant and gangster Massimo Carminati and former
leftwing cooperatives chief Salvatore Buzzi. In less than a
month, sources said, there have been eight attacks on offices
and vehicles of the gardens services, causing an estimated
30,000 euros' worth of damage. Rome Mayor Virginia Raggi said
the city council would file a formal complaint to police because
there "seems to be a guiding hand behind these attacks".
