In Casal di Principe, a statue dedicated to Don Peppe Diana, the priest killed by the Casalesi clan, made by his colleague Don Battista Marello, was inaugurated. The discovery took place during the day dedicated to scouts, so dear to the heart of Don Peppe Diana, in the new wing of the cemetery of Casal di Principe.
Mayor Renato Natale, present at the inauguration, emphasized the importance of this commemoration, also recalling the unveiling of the first monument dedicated to the priest years earlier. The presence of Don Peppe's siblings, Marisa and Emilio, made the event even more significant.
The statue was blessed by Father Franco Picone, vicar of the Bishop of Aversa and parish priest of the Church of San Nicola di Bari, where Father Diana was killed. Over five thousand scouts from various Italian regions participated in the march in his honor through the streets of Casal di Principe, demonstrating their respect and admiration for the priest and martyr of legality.
