Meanwhile, the political tussle on the case does not go out. Salvini, after yesterday’s long-distance confrontation with Enrico Letta, adds to the dose: “he has already decided that he is guilty and obviously it is my fault, regardless – he said at a rally – I’m not going to pass for a butcher and murderer of a person who simply defended herself and her fellow citizens. And what is the proposal of that genius of Enrico Letta? We must remove the license of all Italians ». The leader of the League then added: “If you have a gun license like one million and three hundred thousand Italians, it’s normal to go around armed.”
At Agorà estate on Rai3 he specified: «Let the investigations be carried out, from what emerges the one who defended himself would have been attacked by a criminal, clandestine subject, known for violence, assaults and obscene acts in the city. It is not up to us to judge, let all the points emerge. Obviously when there is a dead person it is always a tragedy, it is always a defeat, a moment of mourning, prayer and reflection. But before judging, you have to be very careful. The one who reacted is a university professor of criminal law and police force instructor, a well-known and respected criminal lawyer in the city, so I don’t think Voghera has turned into a far west. If it is a question of self-defense, someone will have to apologize to the councilor. What then is immediately said “League councilor”, if he had been of the Democratic Party maybe there would not have been all these preventive processes ».
And then again at a meeting in Caserta: «Let’s wait before acquitting or condemning someone. The certainty is that the attacker did not have to be in Italy, he would probably now have his sight saved if he had been expelled as per numerous unsuccessful requests. I do not condemn and absolve anyone, from the first reconstructions it seems that the subject, unfortunately, was a multiple prejudiced. I leave the investigations of the case to the judges and the police ».
