Mafia, fascists, Libyan spies: who killed Piersanti Mattarella?

Who was afraid of Mattarella’s new Palermo, the Madonia mafia clan, the fascist terrorists Concutelli and Fioravanti, the spies of Libyan leader Gaddafi?

Who killed the Christian Democrat president of the Sicilian Region, Piersanti Mattarella, on Epiphany Day 1980, in front of his brother Sergio, now the President of the Republic? Who was afraid of Mattarella’s new Palermo, the Madonia mafia clan, the fascist terrorists Concutelli and Fioravanti, the spies of Libyan leader Gaddafi? And why? A pupil of Aldo Moro, Mattarella shared his political tragedy, a hatred that still reaches us today. Riottoso recounts a murder still without convicted killers, linked to the massacres of Ustica and Bologna railway station, together with historian Miguel Gotor, author of The Murder of Piersanti Mattarella. Italy in the crosshairs: Palermo, Ustica, Bologna 1979–1980, just published by Einaudi.
