President Sergio Mattarella marked
International Day of Support for the Victims of Torture Monday
by calling for more safeguards for torture victims.
"Efforts must be intensified to give voice and offer
safeguards to all the victims of all forms of torture and to
uproot this practice," he said, adding that torture was "one of
the the gravest violations of the rights of man and fundamental
liberties, whenever and wherever it takes place".
