From via Torino to piazza del Mercato, papers left on the ground. It is not the first time: in the past it has thrown glass bottles
IVREA
He got out of a white van on the afternoon of September 20 and with biblical calm began tearing up all the posters in the Via Torino area. And he did the same thing in via Circonvallazione, piazza del Mercato and other areas of Ivrea. Citizens who noticed it were left speechless. “Because? They wondered.
Massimiliano De Stefano arrived on the Facebook group “Ivrea Libera” to give voice to this perplexity. «It happened – he wrote – a very strange episode, towards evening a man with a quiet, peaceful van tore all the posters posted in Ivrea, leaving on the ground all the residues that are fluttering through the various streets. I don’t understand why ». The post was followed by comments from those who saw the same scene in other parts of the city. “I received the testimony from a person who preferred not to appear – explains De Stefano -, but found himself faced with this scene”.
The report is well detailed, the municipal police of Ivrea are aware of it. In some areas where the man tore up the posters, causing damage even to the advertising concessionaire, there are cameras and the commander Paolo Molinario is collecting evidence. “Unfortunately it is a known person – he explains -, who resides here in Ivrea, who has psychiatric problems and for which we are asking for compulsory health treatment (tso). Of course this is only the latest in a long line of things this person has done in the last period. ”
Yes, because apparently the posters are only the latest object of man’s raids. On some occasions he has started throwing glass bottles from the balcony of his house. In others, however, he wanted to lend a hand to the traffic police to direct the traffic in Porta Vercelli. And it seems that he also bothered them during the service, in particular a policewoman. “Unfortunately – explains the commander -, this is not the first time this has happened, we often have to deal with a series of subjects who commit acts for no apparent reason and who would need psychiatric assistance that they cannot always find” .
Now it will eventually be up to the doctors to propose the tso to the mayor and the provision will then have to be validated by a judge. It is a measure whereby a person is subjected to medical treatment regardless of his will, inserted after the Basaglia law and the closure of asylums, and regulated by article 33 of law 833 of 23 December 1978. health authority, on a reasoned proposal from a doctor. The compulsory health checks and treatments are carried out by the local public health units and services and, where hospitalization is required, in public or affiliated hospitals “.
