Minister washes hands of bear

(ANSA) - Rome, August 27 - Environment Minister Gian Luca Galletti on Wednesday washed his hands of a bear threatened with shooting or captivity after cuffing a mushroom hunter who surprised her with her cubs.
    "I'm not with Daniza or with those who want to put her down," Galletti said.
    He said it was up to the semi-autonomous northern Italian Trentino region to decide whether to capture the roaming animal.
