Caserta Prefecture upholds 5,000 euro fine in Trentola Ducenta dispute

The Prefecture of Caserta has issued a 5,000 euro payment injunction, upholding the actions of a local police officer in Trentola Ducenta. The decision concludes a dispute that had previously raised public questions regarding the officer's conduct.

The incident occurred on October 18, 2025, when a local police officer, who was escorting the Mayor to an institutional meeting, was involved in a situation where a citizen allegedly spat on the police service vehicle. Following an administrative investigation, the citizen filed an appeal through legal counsel, alleging harassment by the officer.

After reviewing the documentation and the counter-arguments provided by the local police command, the Prefecture confirmed the original assessment and ordered the payment. The local police command's detailed reconstruction of the facts was noted as instrumental in the authority's final evaluation.
