Italian police are probing a banner
expressing solidarity with a convicted killer that was shown in
the AS Roma fans' section at Anfield during Tuesday's Champions
League semi-final first leg against Liverpool.
The banner read "DDS with us" referring to former Roma ultra
Daniele De Santis, who is serving a 16-year sentence for the
murder of Napoli fan Ciro Esposito ahead of the 2014 Italian Cup
final between Napoli and Fiorentina in Rome.
Police are studying video footage and photos to try to
identify the person or people who put up the banner.
Esposito died 53 days after De Santis shot him on May 3,
2014, in a Naples hospital.
