In the last year, I have helped expose the prosecutor’s alleged error: they arrested a #refugee and mistook him for a smuggler. The prosecutors have responded by wiretapping my conversations with one of my sources. Thanks to the @guardian for their support. #Italy #MigrantCrisis

Le lacrime di @robertosaviano sono il dolore di chi porta sulle spalle il peso di aver acceso i riflettori della stampa e della giustizia su una Mafia che era sconosciuta fuori dai confini della Campania. Lo ha fatto con le parole, quelle che il Governo vorrebbe imbavagliare.
