Man who was 17 at time indicted for Piazza della Loggia

(ANSA) - ROME, APR 5 - A juvenile judge on Wednesday issued a fresh indictment in the the 1974 rightist militant bombing in Brescia's central Piazza della Loggia, which killed eight people, for an Italian who was 17 at the time and has since become a Swiss citizen.
    Marco Toffaloni, 66, believed to be one of those who actually set off the bomb on 28 May 1974, was sent to on trial on charges of massacre.
    Toffaloni currently lives in Switzerland and is a Swiss citizen.
    His defence counsel had asked for a dimissal, arguing that the case had timed out under the statute of limitations.
    In another court, a preliminary hearing is underway against another former rightist militant, Roberto Zorzi, who was an adult at the time of the events, and who is also believed to be one of the material perpetrators.
    The government said on March 23 that it would stand as plaintiff in the latest trial into the Piazza della Loggia bombing that killed eight people and wounded 102 more during an anti-fascist rally in the northern city of Brescia.
    In 2015, a court of appeal in Milan issued a final life sentence to rightist militant Ordine Nuovo (New Order) members Carlo Maria Maggi and Maurizio Tramonte for ordering the bombing, apparently closing one of the longest-running cases on terrorism during Italy's 'years of lead' of rightist and leftist terror.
    Zorzi and Toffaloni are two other Ordine Nuovo-linked former militants. (ANSA).
