Photos of Fascist salute rattle Rome Montessori high school

(ANSA) - ROME, OCT 23 - Two students running for election in the school board of Rome's Montessori Lycée with far-right list 'Riscatto' (Redemption) were photographed giving the Fascist salute in class, a student group denounced on Wednesday, claiming the list was connected to neo-fascist youth organization Generazione Popolare.
    "This is not an isolated case", said the left-leaning Rete Studenti Medi di Roma, the largest group of high school students in the capital.
    "The same list, in fact, is connected to neo-Fascist youth organization Generazione Popolare" and is "present in other schools in the city with lists running for school boards which are apparently anonymous and apolitical" but "hide a neo-Fascist ideology", they said.
    Meanwhile the school principal Anna Maria De Luca said she was evaluating disciplinary action.
    However, she told ANSA that she "personally spoke with the pair who assured me they do not belong to Fascist organizations and that they did not fully consider the meaning and possible consequences of their action". (ANSA).
