(ANSA) - ROME, JAN 27 - A further 14 people have been identified and reported for making Fascist salutes at the commemoration of the 1978 Acca Larentia massacre in Rome in early January, police sources said on Saturday.
    The development takes to 19 the number of people placed under investigation for apology of Fascism in relation to the episode during the event outside the former headquarters of the neo-Fascist Italian Social Movement (MSI) in Via Acca Larentia to commemorate the death of three far-right youth militants.
    The latest suspects include members of the militant far-right Casapound from Avellino, Caserta, Naples and Forlì Cesena, who were identified with the help of the local branches of the DIGOS special security and political police unit.
    Investigations are ongoing.
    Members of the government led by Giorgia Meloni, whose right-wing Brothers of Italy (FdI) party has its roots in MSI, condemned the Fascist salutes, although Meloni herself has failed to comment.
    The centre-left opposition Democratic Party (PD) called for all neo-fascist organisations in Italy to be disbanded. (ANSA).
