Turin, Italy. 19th Oct, 2015. An acclaimed Italian writer and activist was acquitted of incitement to damage property by a court in Turin on Monday, in what is considered a major victory for free speech advocates and critics of a controversial multibillion-euro high-speed rail line at the centre of the case. Supporters of Erri De Luca broke into applause after judge Immacolata Iadeluca ruled that the 65-year-old Neapolitan writer was not guilty of incitement. © Salvatore Esposito/Pacific Press/Alamy Live News
