Meloni orders full probe after arrest death sparks unrest

By GhanaSummary NewsroomPan-Africa

Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni has called for a full investigation into the death of a man during an arrest in Bologna, while strongly condemning violent clashes that left dozens of police officers injured.

Moroccan-born Abderrahim Fakir died on Sunday after police responded to reports of a man behaving aggressively and damaging a vehicle in the city's Pilastro district.

Police say 56 officers were injured after protesters threw bottles, chairs and firecrackers, prompting officers to respond with tear gas and water cannon.
