Milan: Police investigation launched after threatening letter sent to injured officer
Police are investigating a threatening letter sent to Angelo De Simone, the head of the Garibaldi-Venezia police station, following clashes during a procession in central Milan on October 17. De Simone sustained a head injury during the incident.
The letter, dated October 20, contains violent rhetoric, stating that it was a pity the officer's head had not been split open or left him in a permanent coma. The sender, whose name remains illegible, expressed hatred toward law enforcement and suggested that the cobblestones thrown during the clashes should have been larger.
Senate President Ignazio La Russa expressed profound indignation regarding the letter and offered support to De Simone and the security forces.
