Interior Minister Matteo Piantedosi
said Wednesday that suspected brutality at a Verona police
station that has led to the arrest of five officers and the
investigation of 17 others was "of enormous gravity".
"The events emerging from the Verona enquiry, if confirmed,
would be extremely serious, damaging first and foremost to the
dignity of the victims, but also to the honour and reputation of
thousands of women and men of the State Police who daily perform
their service to citizens with dedication and sacrifice",
Piantedosi said.
He vowed that "the judiciary and the State Police itself will
shed full light on what happened"..
