Curcio and Moretti indicted for 1975 cop killing

(ANSA) - ROME, OCT 30 - Historical Red Brigades (BR) leaders Renato Curcio and Mario Moretti were indicted Wednesday for a 1975 shootout near Alessandria in which a Carabiniere was killed.
    Curcio, 83, and Moretti, 78, are both now free having served long terms for terror offences including the 1978 kidnapping and murder of Christian Democrat leader Aldo Moro.
    They will stand trial at Alessandria starting January 25 along with former BR militant Lauro Azzolini for the killing of cop Giovanni d'Alfonso.
    A fourth suspect, Pierluigi Zuffada, won't face trial because his offences have timed out.
    The shootout took place at Cascina Spiotta, an isolated farmhouse in the Monferrato area near Alessandria where the BR had kidnapped wine scion Vittorio Vallarino Gancia.
