A pre-election 'green zone' will
be set up in a large area of Rome's historic centre where only
authorised marches and demonstrations will be allowed from
Wednesday evening until the end of voting Sunday night, Rome
police HQ said Monday.
Police said only demos that had been "regularly" flagged up
would be allowed.
It said the move was needed to prevent incidents linked to
the election as well as the "persistent terror threat".
There have been several clashes with police across Italy
involving anti-Fascists trying to get at neo-Fascist rallies.
