A family of Roma ethnicity was
unable to move into a council flat that they had been assigned
by the city of Rome in the Tor Bella Monaca district on Thursday
after a group of local people took to the street to protest
against their arrival.
The family subsequently filed a complaint to Carabinieri
police, saying they had been threatened by a group of five or
sex people.
There have been several similar cases of big protests against
council flats being allocated to Roma people in the past by
locals and activists from far-right groups.
