Overview
- Bologna’s prosecutors, following Tuesday’s Rai 2 interview, said they will obtain the full recording and hear Roberto Savi as part of their reopened case.
- Savi alleged that unnamed intelligence services asked the Banda della Uno Bianca to carry out some actions and protected the group, saying he traveled weekly to Rome to meet them.
- He claimed the 1991 attack at the via Volturno gun shop in Bologna was a commissioned killing of ex‑carabiniere Pietro Capolungo rather than a robbery.
- Families of victims, led by Alberto Capolungo, condemned the broadcast, denied any tie between Pietro Capolungo and the services, and urged Savi to speak only to magistrates.
- Investigators note Savi has made and retracted similar assertions in the past, and their 2024 review already seeks evidence of institutional cover and other unknown participants in the gang’s 1987–1994 crimes that left 23 people dead.
