PHOTOS: Italian extremists occupied Hungary’s consulate in Venice!
Change language:
‘Free Ilaria at once’, they kept shouting while the group of antifascist activists occupied the Hungarian consulate in Venice, North Italy.
According to ansa.it, the events took place on Friday morning during the visit of Justice Minister Carlo Nordio in the nearby Padua. The thirty partakers, all members of the leftist Rivolta (Revolt) were antifascist activists demanding the release of Ilaria Salis, a 39-year-old elementary school teacher and “antifascist militant”.
She faces up to 24 years behind bars due to allegedly attacking two neo-Nazis last February in Budapest.
“We are here because we want her freedom, because this trial is a farce that intends only to punish antifascism, in a state where anti-migrant border patrols are not only tolerated but promoted,” the activists said.
Several people beaten by antifa group
After some images emerged showing Salis on a chain and wearing hand and ankle cuffs, many Italians believed she would not get a fair court trial in Hungary. Furthermore, fake news emerged about substandard detention conditions, including bed bugs, mice, filth and inhuman punishments.
Hungary’s prison service directorate BVOP has firmly rejected media reports claiming “inhumane conditions” in a Budapest prison where an Italian woman is kept for alleged participation in organised armed attacks in Budapest last year. We wrote about the story in detail in THIS article. HERE, you may read the reaction of the BVOP.
I do not understand why you refer to antifascists as extremists. Italian 1948 constitution is based upon Antifascism, nobody in Italy would say that an antifascist is an extremist.

If this is not big News – please inform us why it isn’t.
Dear Tm, this is the second time we are replying to a similar comment of yours. There must be some confusion here, as we at Daily News Hungary cover news that are in connection with Hungary, Hungarian people, politicians, renown persons. News not related to any of these are not covered by us. Thank you for understanding.
Lariat should spend the rest of her life in prison. She is a terrorist and Antifa is a terrorist organization. It is sickening and perversion of language to even call Antifa, Antifa for they are the fascist. I applaud Hungary for prosecuting her and hope she knows nothing but a prison cell for years. She earned it.
No criminal, regardless their membership or citizenship, has the right to attack a Hungarian citizen with knives. Too bad Hungary does not have capital punishment for foreigners who attempt murder of a Hungarian.
The Italian should appreciate the laws of the country. Too bad she will not be jailed for 20+ years. This should be a warning to the halfwit antifa.
! These extreme left Antifa members should be in jail for a very long time. Their violence all over Europe and the USA cannot be tolerated any more
