Cars set on fire overnight, smoke and sirens waking neighborhoods, residents increasingly fearful. This is the climate that has been experienced for months in Alghero and in recent days also in Porto Torres, where arson incidents of likely malicious intent have increased, endangering people and property.

In Alghero, between 2025 and early 2026, several vehicles were destroyed by fire: from the car that burned on Via Palomba between January 3rd and 4th, to the fires in other areas of the city last April and November. These are just a few examples of a situation that is causing alarm and fear among residents. Similar incidents also occurred in Porto Torres, where on January 8th, a nighttime fire on Via Balai involved a van and two cars, causing serious damage and considerable concern among local residents.

"We cannot accept that entire neighborhoods live in fear and insecurity," comments Dario Giagoni (Lega), the initiator of the initiative that led to the submission of a question to the Minister of the Interior, urging the government to take immediate action to strengthen territorial control and law enforcement presence. "Alghero and Porto Torres," Giagoni says, "are key cities for northwestern Sardinia, with a strong tourism and manufacturing vocation. Allowing incidents of violence and intimidation to recur will damage the quality of life of residents, the local economy, and the image of the region."

For the League MP, the incidents that have affected Alghero and Porto Torres therefore require attention, responsibility, and concrete action, respecting institutional roles and with collaboration between the state and local authorities.

"With this question," the Northern League representative concludes, "we seek rapid and coordinated action to strengthen prevention and control across the territory, providing concrete responses to communities demanding greater protection and peace of mind. It is the institutions' duty to ensure that no part of the country is left alone in the face of events that threaten the safety and trust of citizens."
