Cesare Battisti reports fear of sharing prison with Islamic terrorists

Former PAC fears ending up in the crosshairs of Islamic terrorists who threatened him in the past

“Here are Islamic terrorists.” This is the terrorist's new card Caesar Battisti to escape from maximum security prison in Rossano, the Calabria, in southern Italy.

In a letter to the national director of prisons, the former PAC (Proletarians Armed for Communism) says he fears meeting Islamic terrorists, detained in the same unit where, since last Saturday, he was transferred to carry out his life imprisonment.

Standing in line at the consulate doesn't erase your right to citizenship.

The Italian Supreme Court has confirmed that a consular blockade is legal grounds for legal action.

• Were you unable to schedule an appointment at the consulate?
• Is the process stalled or poorly managed?
• Maternal lineage?
• Incomplete documentation?

See if there is still a solution.

Battisti remembers having already been intimidated by terrorists from Al Qaeda in 2004 and the Islamic State in 2015 for publicly taking a stance against the Islamic veil and the atrocious discrimination against women, and for publicly criticizing the organization's work jihadi in Syria.

Sentenced to life in prison for the murder of 4 people and other crimesBattisti had requested his transfer to a prison in Rome or Milan in the hope of being subjected to a more lenient prison regime. 

Even the hunger strike, in fact, was a way of expressing all the discontent in the face of the harsh prison and, in particular, the isolation imposed in the prison in Rossano.
