Riva del Garda: A Vigil for Legality Organized in the Square. This morning, Saturday, December 7, over 200 people gathered in Piazza 3 Novembre for the “Civil Society Vigil for Legality,” an event promoted by trade unions, local committees, and community associations such as Cgil, Cisl, Uil, Arci, Acli, and Anpi. The demonstration was called in response to a major investigation that has involved Trentino Alto Adige, resulting in the arrest of nine individuals and the investigation of seventy others accused of corruption and organized crime, including entrepreneurs and some local government officials.
The joint statement from the organizers emphasizes the alarming intertwining of business and politics that has prompted the public prosecutor’s office to take action. Recent events highlight a development model based on speculation and concrete, underscoring the need for collective mobilization to defend the principles of legality. Attention is drawn to the Trentino community regarding the importance of common goods and civil rights in an increasingly complex context where public interests risk being compromised by private ones.
