"Ilaria Alpi and Miran Hrovatin, because who is remembered never dies ..." Share

Today at 00:43 March 11, 2010 - March 11, 1994 The Ilaria Alpi with his cameraman Miran Hrovatin military departed from the airport of Pisa a flight 'special' to Mogadishu, Somalia, where Ilaria was sent for a second time by his newspaper, the TG3 -

Ilaria and Miran will never come again, if not in two wooden crates unloaded from a C130 dell'Areonautica military killed at around 15:00 on March 20 in central Mogadishu, a few steps from the residence of the then Italian Ambassador distnaza, which is well protected by over 100 police officers did not hear even the duty to stop from his residence to see - at least to see, be aware of person - those bloody bodies of two Italian giornalsti, because within minutes the voice of the death of Ilaria and Miran spread throughout Mogadishu.

Today, 16 years later still has not written the final word on the double murder, is not given to know a certain truth, sure, undeniable that horrible crime.

The Parliamentary Commission of Inquiry chaired by lawyer Carlo Taormina has failed with an interplay of application of secrets secrets to seal the doors of the archives of the Chamber on the exceptional documentation from all Italian public prosecutors who had investigated the murders, all the offices of Digos, the Italian secret services and foreign, that the Commission had collected ...

The last formal act of the Commission before its closure was to send two police officers to search - early morning - Ilaria's house, where they lived (and live) Giorgio and Luciana Alpi, parents, inexhaustible protagonists of 16 years furious battles to try to understand in what context he developed the double murder and what the murder of his daughter and his colleague from Trieste.

Ilaria was an investigative journalist, intelligent, curious, with your whole life ahead of her destruction has been done: his studies in Cairo, its culture and its sensitivity there is no trace in the work of the Commission nor in the investigations by the prosecution which did not lead anywhere ...

only the memory remains, strong, powerful, irrepressible of two journalists 'on field' who were not afraid of anything but were bold ... were curious, and will not settle for prepackaged truth .... As should be, as they should do, all the reporters, all reporters.

Ilaria and Miran because I remember who is remembered never dies ... (With George and Lucia in the heart)
