The crime wave in Naples continues unabated. Last night, a tobacco shop on Via Cilea in Vomero was burglarized . Thieves forced open the shutters and stole cigarettes, cash, scratch cards, and other items.
The tobacconist's owner, exasperated by yet another theft, reported the incident to Green-Left Alliance MP Francesco Emilio Borrelli. "I can't stand this city overrun by criminals anymore ," he vented his anger.
“They stole everything last night, and the worst thing is that the citizens called the Carabinieri several times, but no one intervened. Only after several attempts did a patrol car arrive, but it was too late. The thieves had already fled.”
The intervention of the deputy Borrelli
Borrelli expressed his solidarity with the tobacconist and harshly criticized the institutions' handling of security. "We've been denouncing this problem for years," the MP stated. "There are too many thefts and robberies, while law enforcement agencies are understaffed and unable to ensure the safety of citizens.
The Minister of the Interior had promised to increase the number of officers, but in the meantime several barracks have closed and the situation has only worsened. It seems that criminals are being given a hand up”.
Security requests
Borrelli called on the Minister of the Interior to intervene decisively to increase the number of officers on the ground and to equip law enforcement agencies with adequate tools to combat crime. "We can no longer accept living in this situation of fear and insecurity," the MP concluded. "Citizens have the right to live peacefully, and institutions must do their duty."
