Valenza, tattoo of the Nazi SS on the chest: storm on the aspiring center-right adviser

A selfie with an aberrant tattoo on the chest – the symbol of the Nazi SS – published on Facebook cost an employee, Sabrina Deambrogi, a candidate in the civic list “The city we want” to support the candidacy for the city councilor of Valenza (Alessandria). of the center-right mayoral candidate Alessandro Deangelis. The photo, then removed from social media, was published today by a local newspaper, Radio Gold, causing the case that ended with the candidate’s self-suspension.

Who remains registered on the list, “because the lists are closed – specifies Deangelis – but will renounce the post of councilor should she obtain sufficient votes to be elected to the municipalities of September 20 and 21. And she will not campaign”. Deangelis defines himself as a liberal, pro-European Catholic, with a past in Forza Italia and then Fdi, “and the two lists that support my candidacy for mayor bring many different sensibilities, but all far from any drift, with a single goal, the common good of Valenza “. Necessary words, considering the very substance of the tattoo: the SS, the infamous Schutz Staffel, were the grimest armed arm of Nazism, stained with atrocities of all kinds both against the Jews and in the countries occupied by Hitler including Italy, such as teach the massacres of Marzabotto, Sant’Anna di Stazzema and many others.

Now the interested party, who until a year ago militant in far-right formations, sketches some excuses, writing a letter and pointing the finger at the “media attention” which had the effect “of questioning my suitability for candidacy as municipal councilor for the next elections “. Deambrogi specifies that the tattoo exhibited with that selfie “has long since been removed” and adds that “the last few months have marked a rebirth for me, coinciding with the desire to unmark myself and move away from the extremist positions that I have supported in the past”.

The capilista Annamaria Zanghi and Alberto Botter, intervene with a note: “By apologizing to the citizens, we clearly and unequivocally distance ourselves from any type and form of totalitarian drift, which can in any form trample and harm essential principles of democracy and dignity We also condemn and dissociate ourselves from any form of outrageous and intolerant language to the person that must absolutely be avoided in a delicate moment like this and above all on social networks “.
