Probe opened into banner against Salvini

(ANSA) - Salerno, May 17 - Salerno prosecutors have opened a probe into a banner against Deputy Premier and Interior Minister Matteo Salvini displayed on May 7 when he was in Campania for rallies for his anti-migrant Euroskeptic League party, sources said.
    The probe was opened after a report by DIGOS security police into alleged election disruption. The trend to greet Salvini with protest banners, meanwhile, gathered pace this week after firefighters took one down near Bergamo this week that told the minister he was not welcome. That move sparked freedom of expression concerns. Protesters including Salvatore Daniele, brother of the late Neapolitan singer-songwriter Pino Daniele, hung banners on Thursday protesting against visits to Naples and Potenza by Salvini. One of the banners read: "Take these down too".
