In connection with Massimo giletti, the sailor of the fishing boat Natalina He reiterates: “They treated us very badly, they forced us to walk barefoot for weeks. They treated us like beasts, even worse. We don’t even treat animals like that. In the first jail, because we changed several, they did not let us eat. In the forest with 18 people they brought us two things. The forest was a kind of abandoned patio, it was not a pretty place, we gave it that name ”.

They say with their mouths that they took 72 miles of sea, but the territorial waters are 12 miles, not 42. If I go back to those waters? For now I will not return to the sea, all this history that we have had I will not be able to forget and I will no longer go to those areas, for me they are closed.
