Naples. A punitive raid to avenge the death of a dog: today at the Department of Veterinary Medicine of the University of Naples Federico II, the dog's owners, family and friends gathered.
The images of the attack quickly went viral on the web and the carabinieri, who intervened, arrested four people. Five people were injured.
Avs MP Francesco Emilio Borrelli denounces: “From hospitals to veterinary centers, it is total barbarism”, sharing the video of the episode. The reconstruction of the events: “Some, for a medical emergency, had brought their dog to the Department of Veterinary Medicine of Federico II for help, after treatment in a private clinic. Despite the attempts, the animal died, unleashing revenge”.
About ten people attacked, after a heated argument, the medical staff and the interns, according to Borrelli. A reported testimony: "A punitive expedition in criminal style - says the witness - this time for the death of a dog.
The students were taken away, two doctors were brutally attacked. Some women tore down poles from the lawn. The police arrived after half an hour, with threats that continued. We managed to escape with our animals”.
The injured include a doctor veterinarian, a research fellow, a security guard, a doorman and a student, all declared curable within seven days.
Four were arrested for complicity in assault on health personnel and disruption of public service: two men (23 and 49 years old) and two women (42 and 46 years old), all known to the police and now under house arrest.
Borrelli comments: “We are in the midst of total barbarism. Violence enters easily and often goes unpunished. The attackers themselves documented the attack on social media, commenting 'they never do anything to us'. The emergency goes beyond the red alert; here madness is rampant. Enough with the promises and hypocrisy, these people must be neutralized”.
The Cgil reacted, highlighting the need for urgent awareness-raising measures. Antimo Morlando, secretary of public health for the Fp Cgil Campania, states: “A rampant violence must be stopped. In addition to the harshening of penalties, a humanization campaign is necessary”.
