President Sergio Mattarella on
Tuesday blasted the use of stickers of Anne Frank wearing an AS
Roma shirt used by some Lazio fans to insult followers of their
city rivals at the weekend. "The face and pages of the diary of
Anne Frank, her story of suffering and her death at the hands of
Nazi barbarism, moved the world," Mattarella said. "Using her
image as a sign of insult and threat, in addition to being
inhuman, is alarming for our country, which was infected 80
years ago by the obtuse cruelty of anti-Semitism".
