Offenses and insults on Facebook, even more serious if directed towards a woman for the sole reason of being a foreigner, and of having portrayed herself in photos with an Islamic veil. But the complaint against haters on the web presented by the girl, a 26-year-old Italian-Algerian, who has been in Italy for over 16 years, ended up in a vacuum. It was archived, because the prosecutor, in this case that of Belluno,
could not identify the authors with certainty, and has an internet network that does not allow access to Facebook
. And this prevented the magistrates from making more precise investigations. A mockery for Assia Belhadj, who had applied in 2020 to the Regionals in Veneto, with the center-left list of Luca Zaia's opponent, the university professor Arturo Lorenzoni.
Hesse's request to obtain justice was frustrated by the decision of the Public Prosecutor, who with the prosecutor Katjiuscia D'Orlando asked for the filing of the complaint, which was then confirmed by the investigating judge Enrica Marson. In the provision,
announced by Belhadj herself with a post on the social network
, the magistrates explain first of all that it was not possible to clearly identify the authors of the posts, and also that "
the network used by the office does not allow access to Facebook
". In the past, the prosecutor continues, these investigations "were carried out by personnel - who are no longer here - who used their own private computer and their own Fb profile".
"It's an absurd situation - says Assia Belhadj, an Italian-Algerian who works in our country as an intercultural mediator, - whoever had to decide has decided that the more than 100 people who took the liberty of offending me, making fun of me, threatening me, mocking me and my religion, they cannot be tried because it is not possible to trace their identity ", commented Belhadj, intercultural mediator. Counting on the fact that every profile of a social network must be associated with an email address, he thought it would be trivial to get to his haters. It was the prosecutor of Belluno, Paolo Luca, who better explained the dynamics that led to the dossier being set aside.
"The investigations - he says - did not allow the authors of those posts
to be identified
.
The elements needed to identify the authors clearly were missing
.
Digos and the Postal Police worked on these investigations. The investigating judge accepted the request for filing. ".
