Rome police answered three calls about mined buildings

Today, the Roman carabinieri answered three anonymous calls with a message about the mining of several buildings at once in the very center of the capital of Italy. At about 9 am local time, the first signal came to the emergency number in Rome.

The man, who did not introduce himself, said that two bombs were planted in the building of the Court of Cassation. Unknown also warned that another explosive is located near the central prosecutor's office. Special detachments of sappers, as well as rescue teams, immediately left at the indicated addresses: on Piazza di Spagna and on Piazza di Spagna.

Upon arrival at the place, the police urgently evacuated everyone who was in the courthouse and in the fast food restaurant McDonald's, located near the capital's prosecutor's office.

And if no bombs were found in the building of the Court of Cassation, the sappers and the search dog are actually in the toilet of the cafe found a bundle with an incendiary mixture.

As later reported by the local police, the found package with the chemical composition could cause a severe fire. Nevertheless, the Carabinieri decided to conduct an additional check of the central Roman region, while blocking the movement, which caused a panic among tourists.

Messages about the mining of buildings in the center of the capital followed a similar call made in a police station in the capital. Yesterday, a man said that a bomb was planted at the address where the Italian Ministry of Finance is located. However, as it turned out later, the warning was false. The sappers who arrived at the indicated address did not find any explosive means. Last week, a bag with white powder inside was delivered to the Chigi Palace department. During the check, it was found out that the package contained ordinary baking soda.

The recipient of the unusual package was the black-skinned Minister for Integration, Cecile Kienge, who in the past has repeatedly been the subject of threats posed by unknown persons.

The last time such incidents occurred in the Italian capital back in 2011. Then, similar parcels were delivered to the embassies of Switzerland and Chile, at the opening of which several civil servants were injured. All the bombs that were in the hands of embassy staff looked like ordinary envelopes. In order for the device to work, it was only necessary to open the packaging. The explosions in the embassies did not take place simultaneously: the interval between them was several hours.

Soon after the incident, similar packages began to arrive at the embassies of other countries, however, fortunately, they found only greeting cards.

The authorities and the police failed to find out who was the sender of the explosive envelopes. Some speculated that this was the work of anarchist groups that had previously sent similar packages to world leaders. Chancellor Angela Merkel, French President Nicolas Sarkozy and Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi were then on the list of potential victims. By a lucky coincidence, the heads of these states did not pick up the bombs intended for them.
