(ANSA) - Rome, March 23 - Security controls must be further
stepped up in crowded areas in light of yesterday's London
terror attack, Interior Minister Marco Minniti said after
chairing Italy's strategic anti-terror analysis committee (CASA)
Thursday. "We must further reinforce controls in the areas where
people gather, as well as places which are noted for visitor
influx," also for Saturday's EU summit marking the 60th
anniversary of the Treaties of Rome, he said. The centre of the
Italian capital is already set to be in lockdown amid fears that
a EuroStop march may be infiltrated by extremists such as the
black bloc who will try to wreak havoc.
