Rome, Italy. 14th August, 2017. About 60 families (about 180 people with dozens of children and girls) occupying more than 4 years of a building in Rome have been cleansed and mangled by police on 10 August last. 11 people were arrested (they were issued with a signature obligation) and 37 were denounced. Since they were cleared, former occupants entered the church of the 12 apostles, right in front of the Prefecture and after 3 nights are still there, under the Basilica portico, with curtains, mattresses and sleeping bags.
