(ANSA) - FERRARA, 09 SEPT - He put a like on a post where he praised Hitler and the crematorium ovens.

Luca Caprini, municipal councilor of the Lega in Ferrara, who is also a police officer and trade unionist of the Sap, is being investigated for propaganda and instigation to commit a crime for racial discrimination with the author of the sentence, the entrepreneur Marco Faccini.

The two were searched by the Digos, as part of an investigation by prosecutor Andrea Maggioni.

The text on which Caprini had clicked 'like' was written to attack the singer Sergio Sylvestre: "But that gentleman with the mustache who used the ovens is gone?".


    The story, which aroused various controversies, was first re-launched on Facebook by Ilaria Cucchi, the sister of the Roman geographer arrested ten years ago and died after a week in hospital. Cucchi, on social media, had addressed directly to the head of the police Franco Gabrielli.


    Caprini had explained that he gave the 'like' only because he knows the author, without having read the contents of what he had written. The policeman on duty at the Stradale then admitted that he had made a mistake, and said he was not pro-Nazi. "Mine was a huge mistake," he said. (HANDLE).
