ROMA (ITALPRESS) – “The killing, on 30 April 1982, of Pio La Torre and Rosario Di Salvo once again highlighted the danger of organized crime, the enemy of the community. Pio La Torre, intensely engaged on the social side, profuses its action also in the fight to the mafia. Deputy, Member of the Parliamentary Commission of Inquiry on the Mafia phenomenon in Sicily, offered a decisive contribution to the cause of legality, with legislative interventions that still constitute the foundations of the normative system of contrast to the mafia”. The President of the Republic, Sergio Mattarella, says this in a message sent to the President of the Center of Studies and Cultural Initiatives Pio La Torre, Emilio Miceli. “The Law “Rognoni-La Torre” was approved in the months after his death and today it is part of the precious civic and ethical legacy that, even through the initiatives promoted by the Centre to Him entitled, is transmitted to young generations, as with the Antimafia Educational Project, aimed at raising students on the issue of legality – he adds. On this day of commemoration of Pio La Torre and Rosario Di Salvo, the Republic pays tribute to their figure and commitment.”.
