(ANSA) - Rome, June 19 - There was a fresh attack on a member
of the leftwing youth street cinema Cinema America group Tuesday
night, police said Wednesday.
This time the victim was the former girlfriend of the
president of the Piccolo America Association, Valerio Carocci.
According to the young woman's police complaint, the
attackers were two and were from "rightist circles", like the
aggressors in the first attack at the weekend.
The Cinema America issued a statement saying it would not be
intimidated.
"We will never turn off our projectors, we're going
forward!", it said.
Last Tango In Paris is scheduled tonight in Piazza San
Cosimato in Trastevere.
DIGOS security police are helping Carabinieri with their
inquiries.
On Tuesday four men were identified over the first, Saturday
night attack on young men wearing Cinema America T-shirts,
targeted as 'antifascists'.
Four 20-year-old youths were assaulted at four o'clock in
Rome Sunday morning by rightist 'thugs' who objected to the
'anti-Fascist' T-shirt one of them was wearing, police said.
The young man wearing the 'Cinema America' shirt had his nose
broken.
Another youth had several stitches for an eyebrow wound.
The Cinema America is a noted meeting place for leftist
youths in the Italian capital.
