Statement by Palazzo Chigi on the arrest of Leonardo Bertulazzi

29 Agosto 2024

The President of the Council of Ministers, Giorgia Meloni, conveys her deep appreciation to the Argentine authorities for the arrest of Leonardo Bertulazzi, who had previously been sentenced in Italy to 27 years in prison for terrorist offences. The arrest came after his refugee status was revoked by the Argentinian Commission for Refugees.  

The arrest of this fugitive member of the Red Brigades was made possible thanks to intense and fruitful collaboration between the Italian and Argentine judicial authorities and Interpol.
