This case has worried Italian politicians. Georgia Meloni called the facts surrounding X an “attack.” The President of the Italian Council specifies that the perpetrator is a “citizen of non-European origin” whose mental state is “altered.” Meloni says he is monitoring the injured officer’s health “with caution.”

Vice-head of the Italian government Matteo Salvini clarified on X that this person is a man of Moroccan origin who is in Italy without a visa.
Milan, underground Morocco, a few recipes, lancia pietre dall’alto colpendo una donna, poi reste la taser e acoltella i poliziotti.
A CRIMINAL who deserves punishment.

Italian media, citing investigators, explain that since arriving in Milan in 2002, the man has already been involved in several cases, including disrespect for an agent and drug possession. In particular, he became the subject of a complaint last Sunday.
Since coming to power in October 2022, Georgia Meloni’s ultra-conservative government has stepped up its criticism of illegal immigration, which it has made a hobby of in the upcoming European elections.
