Francesca Albanese declines to comment on Modena El Koudri case

United Nations Special Rapporteur for the occupied Palestinian territories, Francesca Albanese, declined to comment on the El Koudri case during an appearance in Modena. When asked about the decision by the Municipality of Modena to join the legal proceedings as a civil party, Albanese stated she had not followed the matter closely and had not formed an opinion.

The El Koudri case involves Salim El Koudri, who is accused of driving at high speeds through Modena on May 16, striking several pedestrians. The incident resulted in the death of 55-year-old Monica Esposito and left others with severe injuries, including limb amputations. Prosecutors are investigating the motive and the suspect's mental state following a court-ordered psychiatric evaluation.
