Italy's institutions must be
"sensitive" to the needs of the disabled, President Sergio
Mattarella wrote back Monday to two tetraplegic Sicilian
brothers, Alessio and Gianluca Pellegrino, who had written to
him asking for help. "You have raised a need that is not just
yours but of a general nature," Mattarella replied to the
brothers, who fronted a video of severely disabled Sicilians.
The brothers recently forced the resignation of Sicilian
regional family affairs chief Gianluca Micciché after he failed
to receive them despite them waiting a whole day outside his
office, while being filmed by the satirical TV exposé show Le
Iene (Reservoir Dogs).
