Interior Minister Matteo Salvini said
he wasn't scared after a bullet was intercepted in an envelope
addressed to him Tuesday.
"They don't frighten me and I'm not stopping", said Salvini
after the missive with a calibre nine bullet was stopped at
Rome's central sorting office.
The envelope aroused suspicions because it had not franking
on it or name of sender.
Inside it, there was no message or claims of responsibility
buy any terrorist or political groups, sources said.
The envelope was seized by police bomb squad experts.
As well as being interior minister, Salvini is also deputy
premier in Italy's populist government, and leader of the
anti-migrant Euroskeptic nationalist League party.
