A judge on Tuesday upheld a
request from prosecutors to cancel the acquittal of Paolo
Bellini, a 66-year-old former member of rightist militant group
Avanguardia Nazionale, in relation to the Bologna train station
bombing that killed 85 people on August 2, 1980.
As a result Bellini is under investigation again.
A face on a frame from an amateur Super 8 film shot by a
German tourist on the morning of the attack shows a "marked
resemblance" to Bellini, ANSA sources said in March Monday.
On the basis of this evidence Bologna prosecutors requested
the revocation of Bellini's 1992 acquittal so as to reopen
investigations and make an anthropometric recognition test.
