Rome: Senator and Judge Robbed by Algerian Gang

This month, the Italian 5 Stars party joined with the Partito Democratico to stab Interior Minister Matteo Salvini in the back, taking over the government, removing him from his post, and re-joining the family of EU nations led by Merkel's Germany and Macron's France in reopening Italian ports to waves of Arabs and Africans sailing across the Mediterranian.

One 5 Stars senator, Gabriele Lanzi, may be having second thoughts after he wa robbed of his bags near Rome's  train station. The same gang also robbed a judge of his belongings in the same area within the span of a few minutes.

They were robbed in the course of a short time by the same thieves, a band of young North Africans who struck in the area of the Termini station.

The victims of this ugly experience were Gabriele Lanzi, Five Stars Movement senator and an appeals court  judge. As reported by Metro News, two members of the gang have been captured and arrested  accused of aggravated theft. They are an Algerian of 20 years of age and another of the same nationality, age 27. The third is still being sought.

The thieves first struck the magistrate who was having lunch in a  restaurant near the station. When the moment came to pay, the appeals court judge realized that his travel bag had disappeared. Inside were private documents and files of conference proceedings in which he was supposed to participate. Shortly, thereafter, it was the turn of the Honorable Lanzi. The (5 Star) senator was looking for a taxi in via Amendola, and in that moment, a young man approached him asking him for an address while another young man kept a lookout.. But it was an excuse. A moment of distraction was costly to Lanzi because another member of the gang arrived, who carried away the bags that the politician had with him. Inside were a pc, an ipad and some documents. The gang then got away.

After the theft, the senator went to the police. The officers searched the streets near the station, after having recognized the perpetrators of the theft. They identified an Algerian and noticed that he had with him the keys with the logo of a bed and breakfast. Once inside the hotel room, they found the objects stolen from Lanzi and some documents of the magistrate.
