RIETI – Documents and brochures of the Red Brigades, bullets and ammunition for machine guns and pistols, bulletproof vests and clothing, including military uniforms, newspaper fragments dating from the “years of lead”. It is the incredible discovery made in the forests of Poggio Catino by a department of the Says of Rome after three days of excavations and patrols.
An unrivaled display of forces for three days on the Via Tancia where a large oak tree separates the road near “Casale Ferri”. There is a forest and a path that goes into the mountain. A few hundred meters from the road, the finding after the police who had delimited the area and did not allow anyone to approach, the firefighters with an excavator and canine units patrolled the area inch by inch. Even with the help of metal detectors.
In the village, in Poggio Catino, the thing of seeing all this great movement had not escaped, but nobody could imagine it. There was talk of mystery. Finds of ghost treasures, including the search for corpses and finally the making of a movie. The latter was the hypothesis that had circulated most insistently and that in the end, even without a script and director, a more surprising ending was reserved than the cinematographic one.
Excavations
The police, after days of excavations carried out even when it was dark, found the underground clandestine deposit in the Poggio Catino forest. A metal plate rusted by water infiltrations covered by earth and leaves in the middle of the oak forest: it is there that the Digos of Rome have opened two asbestos-covered wells, in the middle of the clearing between the trees, with hiding places a few dozen of distance. meters from each other. Uncovered boxes containing ammunition for pistols and machine guns, BR documents and flyers, and military clothing ready to be used in criminal actions. A clandestine deposit from which fragments of those dark years of terrorism resurface, consigned to history as the “years of lead.” Materials such as seals, plates and artifacts were also extracted from the excavations that have now deteriorated due to the passage of time and bad weather as they had been stored there in boxes and cases for more than 40 years and where water infiltrations had begun. irreparably ruin the content.
The exhibits had been there for more than 40 years.
The Scientific Police will now think of dating the findings exactly, trying to decipher something between newspaper clippings and various publications that, from the little that has been leaked, it seems that the readable material stops in 1977, before the kidnapping of Moro’s murder. Documents with the five-pointed star, cards with the names of politicians of the time and high officials of the state. Lots of displays, overalls and uniforms and sheets, some of which are legible, others that the Forensic Department is already working on to shed light and understand how this material ended up on that wood, perhaps hidden and brought there from some lair and then it remained buried for decades covered by a slab. metal, earth and foliage that had made it impossible to find everything that yesterday returned to light. There was no weapon of any kind among the exhibits.
The police searches, which began after a report with the place of the find identified and circumscribed with precision, were carried out with the help of metal detectors that made it possible to decisively identify the underground hiding place, with the help of a fire brigade bulldozer and the dogs of the canine units.
