A young man from Puglia was arrested by the police on charges of enlistment for the purpose of international terrorism and propaganda and incitement to crime for reasons of racial, ethnic and religious discrimination.

It is a 23 year old, belonging to the US supremacist group "The Base".

According to the indictment he acted in Italy as a "lone wolf" and was ready to "take action and extreme sacrifice in defense of the white race".

In a Telegram chat - named “Sieg Heil” , after the infamous Nazi salute, the young man also threats against life senator who survived the Holocaust Liliana Segre.

Investigations also show that the arrested man had a rifle, a shotgun, a crossbow, edged weapons and clubs in his possession.

An arsenal that was procured in a clandestine way and - it seems - also by attacking security guards.
