We apologize to all readers for our prolonged absence but take on various absorbed all our energies. We hope to return to production as soon as possible and we thank all those who continued to follow us despite our absence "temporary".
What we offer today is a document that is a sad excerpt from the recent Italian history. We invite you to read and meditate on, so that this fragment does not fall into oblivion as often happens.
Here 's article posted on the blog of Beppe Grillo July 24, 2008.
"In Italy there is not (yet) the death penalty, but there is a right to torture . The crime of torture is not part of our penal code. A Bolzaneto were beaten, threatened, torture of defenseless children . If the materials are responsible for at least subjected to a trial, the politicians are always safe, the government and the House. They will never be prosecuted.
"My name is Giorgia di Padova, 7 years ago I was 20, I went to the G8, I started really thinking about visiting a city that had never seen, in which there was a sea, a good time with my friends, but then I found myself in a huge event that seemed more like a war. I found myself in the midst of the black block, bins burned cars jumped up urban warfare, I was not accustomed I had never done such a great event on Saturday, the penultimate day of the event after the death of Carlo Giuliani, was going to try to recover my backpack, and I found myself in the middle of a rope, which was broken in two by the police, so people started to run away to the right people who left I had the misfortune to turn left there and the police started coming towards us has started beating us and took us in Piazzale Kennedy. In the square was full of Kennedy have asked the police identity card and do not have more than returned. We were loaded on a furgonetta, led us to the fair at the headquarters of the Carabinieri where they started to insult us, saying he had rape us as they did in Kosovo , we were all sluts and various things like that ... Then we
stayed there I do not know how many hours, we have closed the wrists with plastic handcuffs furgonetta I was sitting behind the other guys were telling me not to listen, let it be so .. beatings they gave me, legs and arms and back I was standing with his hands up, I think my photos will be seen everywhere, in newspapers and newscasts, with their hands up and with a handkerchief on the head to tear the guy behind me was a Moroccan who do not know if is still alive, have led us to Bolzaneto , we were standing in the same position, then beat the guys who were dressed in black, made them kneel in rows of 3, they've done sing "Little Black Face" people who do not understand why the English so if you just took, sprayed pepper spray inside the cells, we wanted to cry but could not cry we could not talk could not do anything.
At one point I sat down because I could not take over and there was another guy beside me who was from Verona that if he sees this video, please contact me he was totally destroyed because he was dripping blood, he could not stand but they would not let him sit ... then there were a lot of other guys, people who arrived with broken foot, he could not stand but we had to stay the same, who needed a doctor for the injection of insulin but no doctor could enter and then you could hear cries of pain all the time, there was a guy in a wheelchair that he too had been beaten ... in short, a number of things very inhumane, in the end I do not know how long they took fingerprints, we have put together at random, saying "what we give to these?" that the other cop replied, "but it put him a bit 'of everything, looting and devastation of an offense against public officials" all accusations that I did not even know what they were, wondering if I could not ask because I replied that I had to stay silent.
After an interminable time we have taken in groups, have led us handcuffed in prison in Varese. In comparison, the prison has been a breeze because the prison officials knew it was temporary that we had not done anything so we would be freed soon, they treated us better, they gave us food, of course it was not a nice experience .. Then I was lucky that my request for arrest came too late since the days judicial useful, so after 4 hours in jail they let me go. I finally claimed damages at the trial, I testified and acknowledged all those who I recognize, and it was exciting enough, I do not want to go to court for any reason.
The defense tried to discredit the police everything I was saying, but although I was excited and said things that are true to pm that the other guys. 10 minutes before our hearing, while waiting for my turn in court, I met the guy who has been with me in the barracks we looked and we recognized.
But during the process have tried to discredit what I told because they believed I had agreed with him but in reality was not so short, you are quite busy with the other witnesses to try and discredit our version of events. Now I no longer live in Italy, so I was not able to attend the final hearing of the process, I was only told it is finished, what if we have the right but I do not know exactly who has been accused who has been, what have done and who is not, but certainly, the cops just for the fact that police will never pass away everything they have passed us, because the problem is that they're being protected by the State have an extra more, then there will end up in jail never, no never will torture them like they tortured us, okay I'm not for revenge then I'm not saying that they should treat them the same way, but a little pawn 'salary does not seem the same thing, I just wish the police officers, principals involved and the most cruel in the case, retired from the function, for the sake of the credibility of the police , because if both were guilty of certain things does not even schierino more sense that the side of justice. " Giorgia Partesotti " I conclude
reported as Amnesty International has spoken about the events G8 Genoa: "The most serious suspension of democratic rights in a Western country since the Second World War."
