En italiensk domstol fann på måndagen 15 poliser skyldiga till misshandel av demonstranter under G8-mötet i Genua 2001.

Poliserna dömdes till mellan fem månaders och fem års fängelse. [...]
Polisen har anklagats för organiserad brutalitet vid en skola där demonstranterna bodde under toppmötet och senare vid polisbarackerna dit de gripna demonstranterna fördes.

Enligt åklagaren led fyra av fem av de gripna demonstranterna av polisens hårdhänta behandling och som utifrån Europadomstolen för mänskliga rättigheter kan betecknas som “inhuman och nedvärderande”. [...] Tredagarsmötet stördes av omfattande upplopp, i vilka en demonstrant dödades och hundratals skadades i sammandrabbningar med polis.

Sen ska de väl överklagas fram och tillbaka. Tyvärr skriver inte SvD inte ut sanningen, “en demonstrant dödades”. Nej han vart tämligen kallt avrättad. Skjuten med en automatkarbin genom huvudet och sedan överkörd.

Wikipedia har mer intressant information om mordet på Giuliani:

All charges against the Carabiniere who shot him, Mario Placanica, were dropped, when the judge presiding over the case concluded that the fatal bullet that struck Giuliani was not directly aimed at Giuliani and had “ricocheted off plaster”,[2] and ruled that he had acted in self-defense, without taking the case to trial.[1]

However, during a later trial in Genoa of some demonstrators allegedly involved in clashes the same day Giuliani was killed, the same forensic doctor, professor Marco Salvi, who had been a consultant to Silvio Franz, the prosecutor who led the case against Mario Placanica, testified that Giuliani had been the victim of a “direct hit”, thus contradicting the decision previously made based on the alleged mid-air change of direction of the bullet. The conclusion of Judge Daloiso, which had already been subjected to strong criticism, was challenged by the press, as was the decision not to charge the driver of the Land Rover for running over Giuliani on the basis that he was already dead. Medics tending to Giuliani after he was run over testified that his heart was still beating[3], and this was confirmed by professor Salvi during the trial in Genoa. Had it been found that Placanica shot Giuliani in self-defense, a trial would have been necessary, but the conclusion that the bullet was not fired directly at Giuliani removed the need for a trial.

To confuse the situation further, in late 2003 Placanica told the Bologna daily Il Resto Del Carlino that “I’ve been used to cover up the responsibility of others.” He claimed that the bullet found in Giuliani’s body was not of the caliber or type fired by the pistols of the Carabinieri, and claimed the deadly shot had come from somewhere in the piazza outside.[4] After making this statement, Placanica was involved in a “suspicious” car accident, days after allegedly observing someone tampering with his car.[5] Placanica was allegedly kept in seclusion following the incident, and his parents were not allowed to visit him in the hospital.[6]

Nån som ser ett samband mellan skottlossningarna i Göteborg 2001 mot såväl demonstranter som journalister och mordet i Genoa?

Vad som dock skiljer det hela åt är att man i “rättsstaten” Sverige låter polisen manipulera bevis, samt skapa helt nya bevis som de dessutom kommer undan med.

Mina tankar om Italien är inte så värst höga, men där verkar det iallafall finnas ett uns mer rättssäkerhet än i sverige.
