(ANSA) - Rome, January 8 - Rome prosecutors on Monday requested the indictment of Ostia crime family member Roberto Spada on charges of attacking a RAI reporter and a cameraman in the Roman coastal municipality on November 7.
    A request was also made for Spada's alleged accomplice, Ruben Nelson Alvez del Puerto. They are accused of bodily harm aggravated by mafia methods.
