Valerio Fioravanti - Bologna Massacre Investigation

Bologna Massacre Investigation

The bombing was quickly attributed to neofascists by the authorities; in late August 1980 the prosecutor of Bologna had ordered the arrest of 28 people on charges of subversive association, including Fioravanti (who was already a fugitive with Mambro) and far right ideologue Stefano Delle Chiaie. Delle Chiaie and his associates, Pierluigi Pagliai and Joachim Fiebelkorn were abroad, in 1982 Pagliai was fatally wounded during an attempt to bring him to Italy. Those initially detained under the arrest orders were all released over the following months.
