Threats to journalist Rubio: Sugc, we will soon be in Arzano due to our proximity to threatened colleagues.
“Two serious and related intimidating incidents by members of a well-known Camorra family linked to the 167 clan of Arzano have once again targeted professional journalist Mimmo Rubio, who has been under escort since October 2020. The events occurred over the past weekend and were immediately reported to the judiciary”.
This is what the Campania Joint Journalists' Union has announced in a note, expressing concern for this latest episode of intimidation that will be reported to the Prefect and the Viminale observatory on threatened journalists: “soon we will be back in Arzano – announces the union – to make our closeness felt to our threatened colleagues and to those who fight for legality in that territory every day".
The fact, we always read in the Sugc note, "it happened in the presence of the escort and another journalist, Giuseppe Bianco, who had also previously been the victim of threats. A criminal stopped in front of Rubio with an evidently threatening attitude, after a few hours the mother of the same criminal "invoked" the death of the journalist, commenting on a post with a photo of him". “In the last few days Rubio was reporting, on the Arzano news page, about the statements of the collaborators of justice of the 167 clan of Arzano”, stigmatizes the union.
