ITA23 RSC- MEETING WITH COMANDANTE ALPHA
26 juin 2023Like every year since 1994, in Italy, May 23 remembers one of the most tragic mafia massacres, that of Capaci where Judge Falcone died with his wife and escort. In July of the same year, judge Paolo Borsellino was also killed in another attack in Palermo. Falcone and Borsellino represent for us Sicilians and for the whole of Italy the symbol of the fight against the mafia and the symbol of the defense of legality even at the cost of life.
This year our school remembered this day by inviting Commander Alpha, the code name of a carabiniere who, from the 80s to today, has been the protagonist of the fight against terrorism first and then against the mafia, having participated in the capture of various mafia fugitives , not least the arrest of Matteo Messina Denaro. It was a very emotional moment during which Commander Alpha spoke not only about his life, which he still lived undercover today, but about how important the defense of freedom is, emphasizing that to be free one must respect the rules.
