In July 2026 Siena police uncovered an immigration fraud scheme in which a cultural mediator used falsified credentials to obtain residence permits for foreign nationals. The mediator was placed under house arrest and barred from the city for four years, while several accomplices were also charged.

A few weeks later, in August 2026, the same police force acted against a separate incident of extremist graffiti threatening the prime minister. The suspect, an Albanian resident of Florence, was identified, charged with aggravated vandalism and threats, and prohibited from entering Siena for four years.

Both cases illustrate a pattern of aggressive local law‑enforcement measures in Siena, employing arrests, bans and other restrictions to curb illegal activities ranging from immigration fraud to politically charged vandalism.
