Napoli. “Thefts and robberies even in broad daylight, even in the heart of the city. Napoli has long been at the mercy of criminals and delinquents. On Sunday, August 28, the one to pay the price was a hostel in Piazza Santa Maria La Nova where a man, after having entered the accommodation facility, wearing a helmet, stole the cash from the cash register”.
The owner of the facility told the story, having turned to the Regional Councilor of Europa Verde Francesco Emilio Borrelli: "We don't have much cash because everyone here pays with cards and he took away what we had. Then before going to file the complaint we went to see if we could find any trace of this item and we also found the scooter, which however turned out to be stolen.
The absurd thing is that after being robbed I started calling the emergency number at 15:05 they answered at 15:40…35 minutes later, crazy.”. “The city urgently needs a new security plan: more officers on the streets and a reinforced video surveillance network. Criminals and delinquents are holding the population, shopkeepers, entrepreneurs and tourists in check.
Now we must put the police in a position to be more reactive, effective and strong to fight crime and protect the city. Finally, we need certain sentences. Too often these criminals, once caught, are immediately released from prison", declared Borrelli.
