Gian Adelio Maletti, then number two at the Sid reconstructs the years of bloodshed in a long interview has now become a book
Three young journalists (27, 28 and 30 years) take at their own expense a plane and go to South Africa in Johannesburg, to interview a former general of the Italian military secret service. The three are Sceresini Andrea, Nicola and Maria Elena Palma Scandaliato. The general is Gian Adelio Maletti, Sid's number two in the years of the bomb in Piazza Fontana (1969), the Borghese coup attempt (1970), the massacre of Brescia (1974), the strategy of tension. For three days questioning the secret agent, the officer left (so far) the highest in rank to bear the full brunt of the false leads of State on the massacres. Maletti respond. He says. He does not remember. Explain. Deny. Reveals. In an oblique and partial, but illuminating in its own way, he reconstructs the story of the secret war waged in Italy in those years. Actors, performers of neo-fascist New Order and National Vanguard, their protectors in the equipment of Italian government, the shadows Atlantic. The long interview is now a book, "Fountain Square, we knew," foreword by Paul Biondani, published by Aliberti. Here we present a song (we also publish the video interview of four times the general Maletti, partly unpublished, exclusive to readers dell'Antefatto). In it, General Maletti Sid speaks of an informant infiltrated the group in Veneto New Order, Gianni Casalini, source "Turkish". Sid explains how the judiciary to prevent him from revealing what he had seen on the attacks of 1969. And (made unpublished) of how the police "clean up" the deposit from which came the American explosives used in Piazza Fontana in Milan, probably in Piazza della Loggia in Brescia. Tomorrow, will be questioned Maletti, video conferencing, the ongoing process on the massacre of Piazza della Loggia, the last chance for judicial groped to make ends meet between historical truth (already largely achieved) and truth of the case.
From "Piazza Fontana, we knew" (Aliberti publisher)
Six years after Piazza Fontana, a small incident that happened was a protagonist. It was June 5, 1975. She took a sheet, and wrote this short note: "Interview with Mr. Head. Case Padova: Casalini you want to download the conscience. It began to admit that he has been involved in attacks on trains in 1969 and brought explosives, and the rest, as well as weapons, to be kept in a basement of Venice. The Casalini talk again and is already bringing his aim on other gr. Padovano + + Giannettini Chiaia. States that were operating appg convinced. Sid. Future discussion, close by June. MD looked forward to talks with all the repercussions. Convene D'Ambrosio. Instruct gr. Cc (Del Gaudio) to proceed. " You remember?
If I had to remind me of all the entries I've done, then I'd be a living encyclopedia. But yes, I remember something. The memo refers to a conversation with the head of Sid, who at the time was Admiral Mario Casardi. I wrote it rather hurriedly, as can be seen. Probably, I was in my office, at Forte Braschi, and there was the car that was waiting for me outside.
The document was discovered in 1980 during a raid at his home. Gianni Casalini we have already spoken, was a militant group in Padua. He worked for Sid, with the code name "Turkish", from 1972 to 1975: until, that is, she ordered the closure of the source. A little while ago, you told us something very important: Casalini, during his collaboration, there proved to be a big secret. He spoke of the explosive in Piazza Fontana, said the bombs were Germany, who were of American origin, and had been handed over to the Venetian neo-fascists. All that remained mysteriously confidential information, at least for the judiciary. Then in 1975, to make matters worse, she took this decision to close the source. Why?
Look, the decision was not taken by me. Was taken Casardi Admiral, who was then director of the Sid. (...) Not only has not reported: it has tried to make sure he did other things. Things rather hot.
On his note reads: "Casalini you want to download the conscience."
The meeting of the neo-fascist group
However, dear boys, this is not more than a friendly conversation, this is a court, and I am the accused. But they are not charged.
But no, generally we do not impute anything.
No, I like to put things right. I do not want it pursued me with questions that clearly I can not answer, not ill will, but for lack of mnemonic hooks.
Do not worry. In that case, we will try to provide some new footing. Casalini, in 2008, said many other things. On April 18, 1969, was held in Padova a mysterious meeting was attended by the leading exponents of neo-fascist group. There was Franco Freda, John Ventura, Pozzan, Toniolo and Balzarini. And there were two other characters, arrived from Rome, whose identity was never revealed. It was established everything: bombs, attacks. Casalini told everything to Sid. And Sid? What did the Sid?
Look, I have no idea. It's been four decades .(...)
The basement of Venice
continue to read. Later, still in memo, was quoted as Manlio Del Gaudio, captain of "Assign gr. Cc (Del Gaudio) to proceed. " Del Gaudio was the commander of the carabinieri di Padova .(...) Casalini He was a friend's father, Mario. According to the judge Salvini, should intercede with the family to persuade the militant neo-fascist a good sit. That is to say nothing.
This directive was given by Casardi. Anyway: I do not know anything about this friendship. If true, this would explain many things.
Excuse me, General, in what sense? What would explain?
explains, among other things, that the father of Casalini was ordered to quickly clean up a basement room under the staircase.
What basement?
The basement of Venice, right? The same of which I speak in my notes ...
The massacre of Piazza della Loggia
General, we explain everything calmly.
Ok, guys. One Should Never Say Never, never say never. Follow the order: I will explain everything, once and for all. I, as I said, I called the center of Padua, ordering that the source was closed. I ordered also that the command of the police were informed of Padua, for the tasks of the case. (...) It was to deal with, for example, the famous store of explosives. (...) Those who have physically drained arsenal has little importance. They, in my opinion, had no fear of being caught in the act.
is a very serious incident, General. The police covered the operation, and neo-fascists managed to get away. But what was there, in that arsenal? (...) The truck loaded with explosives, those who came from Germany, made stop in Mestre, near Venice. On board there were several crates of dynamite from a U.S. warehouse in Germany has told her. It is possible, therefore, that those funds were kept in the vault of which we just talked about?
Sure, I'd say yes. Hypothesis is reliable.
in the arsenal of Venice, in short, was the explosive of Piazza Fontana, the explosive American. Casalini was, moreover, to indicate its provenance: it is logical that they also knew the destination. That would explain everything: the bombs were not to be found: the entire U.S. strategy was about to be unmasked. It is a revelation heavy ...
But I do not possess any evidence.
Certainly, General. But there's something else at this point, we would like to ask you. The store remained in operation for at least six years from 1969 to 1975. In 1974, there was the massacre of Piazza della Loggia in Brescia. According to the arguments of the judges, the killing was organized by the same group that acted in Piazza Fontana: ordinovisti the Venetian. You can, in his opinion, that the explosives came from the Piazza della Loggia that arsenal?
hypothesis does not seem farfetched. But, I repeat, we are in the field of assumptions. There are no prove.Del Gaudio and the heads of Sid
What she is denying is not an unusual scenario, and quite disturbing. But tell us: Del Gaudio acted of her own free will? We know that he was a member of P2, as well as the leaders of the division Pastrengo, they did disappear reports Casalini. The directors of the operation, most likely, they were high: much higher ...
do not know, I do not know. All I know is this: the order to empty the arsenal did not leave by the leadership of Sid. I am not able to say the least.
