Meloni: ‘Nothing can justify’ Bologna violence after man dies in police custody

This report covers meloni: 'nothing can justify' with key details and context.

Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni has condemned the violence that erupted in Bologna on Monday following a vigil for a man who died after police restraint. Abderrahim Fakir, a 42-year-old Moroccan-born man, died on Sunday after police pepper-sprayed and restrained him face-down in the Pilastro district. His death will be investigated ‘with the utmost rigour,’ Meloni said, but added that ‘nothing can justify violence against the police.’ She accused protestors of ‘fomenting a climate of hatred’ against officers. The vigil in Piazza Nettuno, organised by mayor Matteo Lepore, was peaceful, but a separate demonstration in Piazza Roosevelt turned violent, leaving police and protesters injured. Lepore said Bologna saw ‘two piazzas’ – one representing the city’s values, the other not. Meloni has since called for Lepore’s resignation.
