Piera Maggio receives Denise's new tax code: "My daughter is there, until proven otherwise"

"On the one hand so much bitterness, on the other the Italian state makes us feel the presence of our daughter... at least with the tax code that was about to expire".

Thus Piera Maggio , in a post on Facebook in which she shows the new health card of her daughter Denise Pipitone , who disappeared at the age of 4 on 1 September 2004 from Mazara del Vallo .

The card was delivered as a due deed , a simple practice of the Italian bureaucracy, but for women it takes on a particular meaning.

"Denise is there, until proven otherwise," adds Piera Maggio, who has never resigned to the disappearance of her daughter.

The woman had recently been to Cagliari precisely to tell the stages of a painful story that neither the investigations, nor the trial, nor the attention of the media, nor the sightings that have followed one another without stopping have ever led to a conclusion.
