Some 18 militants of the neo-fascist
CasaPound group were indicted Friday for an alleged attack on a
march by anti-fascists in Bari on September 21, 2018.
The anti-fascists were protesting a visit to the southern city
by nationalist League party leader Matteo Salvini.
The CasaPound members have been charged with grievous bodily
harm and reforming the dissolved Fascist Party that ruled Italy
from 1922 to 1943.
The trial will start on October 13.
Prosecutors have said the attack was "reminiscent of the actions
of Fascist thugs".
