(ANSA) - ROME, MAR 25 - There were moments of tension during
an unauthorized anarchist protest in Venice on Saturday as
demonstrators made their way back from the Frari church to
Piazzale Roma.
Around 40 anarchists shouted slogans against Italy's tough 41
bis prison regime and in solidarity with the jailed Italian
hunger-striking anarchist leader Alfredo Cospito, followed by
police in riot gear.
Some 700 police officers were deployed in the lagoon city from
early morning in readiness for the unauthorized protest, which
had been organized in solidarity with Juan Antonio Sorreche
Fernandez, a 45-year-old Spanish anarchist sentenced at first
instance to 28 years by the Court of Treviso for the 2018
bombing of K3, the rigt-wing League party's headquarters in
Villorba. (ANSA).
