The Hungarian foreign ministry's
press office told ANSA on the rejection of Italian antifascist
Ilaria Salis's plea for house arrest in a trial for attacking
two neoNazis Thursday that "Hungary is ruled by law and the
government does not interfere in any way with the competencies
of the judiciary".
Salis, a 39-year-old Monza elementary school teacher who
allegedly attacked the neoNazis in February of last year as part
of a German 'hammer gang', has complained of "inhuman" detention
conditions and was once more led into a hearing Thursday in
shackles and on a chain.
Italy has protested about her detention but has also said it
knows the Hungarian government cannot interfere with the
sovereign justice system.
