Assault on Cgil, Corradetti Arrested: Sentenced to Over 5 Years in Prison

The appeal was rejected, Corradetti ends up in prison. Fabio Corradetti has been arrested by the police: he is a militant of Forza Nuova, close to the ultra circles of the capital and son of the partner of Giuliano Castellino. The activity of the Digos stemmed from the pronouncement of the VI Criminal Section of the Cassation, in relation to the appeal against the sentence of April 17, 2023, by the Court of Appeal with which Corradetti had been convicted for the aggravated crimes of resistance to a public official and personal injuries, committed during the riots in the center of Rome after the assault on the Cgil. The Supreme Court, rejecting the appeal of the lawyers, confirmed the sentence to 5 years and 4 months. Corradetti was arrested yesterday and associated with the Rebibbia prison. On October 9, 2021, on the sidelines of the violent clashes recorded during that day, he was arrested, in flagrante delicto, by personnel of the Digos of Rome on Via del Corso near the Parliament building. The subsequent investigative activity conducted by the Digos and coordinated by the Prosecutor's Office would crystallize the responsibilities in the violence consumed on October 9, for which the Supreme Court, rejecting the appeal presented by his lawyers, confirmed the same sentence to 5 years and 4 months of imprisonment. In the main trial for the assault on the Cgil, which took place on October 9, 2021, the Rome court convicted the seven defendants, essentially accepting the accusatory structure of the Prosecutor's Office. In particular, the court sentenced Giuliano Castellino, the Roman leader of the extreme right-wing movement Forza Nuova, to 8 years and 7 months in prison. One month less (8 years and 6 months) for the founder of Fn, Roberto Fiore, as well as for the militant Luigi Aronica. Eight years and two months for the other defendants Luca Castellini, Salvatore Lubrano, Lorenzo Franceschi, and Pamela Testa. The sentence triggered a real brawl in the courtroom with Roman salutes and some clenched fists, slogans against the judges, and belligerent phrases. 'People like us never give up', then applause in mockery towards the judges and the cries of shame and 'now we make war'. Regarding the defendants, depending on the positions, the prosecutor Gianfederica Dito contested the crimes of incitement to commit a crime, devastation, and multi-aggravated resistance.
