Castel Volturno, death threats against the Democratic Party secretary: "Remove it or we'll make you pay."

Castel Volturno - A social media post alleging the alleged abuse of minors for electoral purposes has turned into a nightmare of threats. This is what Alessandro Buffardi, secretary of the Castelvolturno Democratic Party, is experiencing. He has received "extremely serious messages" after raising the issue of an incident that occurred Sunday during the inauguration of a Comboni Fathers sports center.

According to the reconstruction, some students from the local hotel school, who were involved in hosting the public event, were allegedly diverted to distribute flyers for Angela Cortese, councilor and Forza Italia candidate in the Campania regional elections.

The complaint was made by the provincial coordinator of the M5S in Caserta, Giuseppe Buompane, who had pointed the finger at the "scandalous" political use of an educational space. Mayor Pasquale Marrandino, present at the inauguration with other members of the municipal assembly, responded curtly: "I immediately stopped the leafleting, which lasted only a few seconds.

The boys were supporters of the candidate and they made a mistake: I reprimanded them on the spot." But for PD MP Stefano Graziano, the episode is "yet another indecent exploitation by the right, which transforms a public event into an election campaign by exploiting unsuspecting young students."

The threats to Buffardi reportedly came shortly after the post was published, in a tone the party calls "harsh and intimidating," aimed at "silence him and forcing him to delete everything." Graziano, expressing full solidarity with his colleague, is unequivocal: "The right never misses an opportunity to exploit educational spaces for election purposes. The female students, likely deceived in good faith, deserve an apology and protection.

To Alessandro, I say: continue without fear, we will not leave you alone." The Santa Maria Capua Vetere Public Prosecutor's Office is reportedly considering opening a file on the threats, while the local Democratic Party (PD) has announced a formal complaint. In an area already marked by Camorra and political tensions, the episode refocuses attention on how the Campania election campaign is sliding towards dangerous directions.
