A Bari court convicted 12 members of the neo-fascist CasaPound group for attempting to reorganize the banned Fascist Party, sentencing five to 18 months and seven to two and a half years in prison. The ruling recognized the group's fascist nature and barred them from political office for five years. The case originated from a 2018 attack on anti-fascist demonstrators. Opposition leaders have called for the dissolution of CasaPound, and the defendants are required to compensate victims of the attack.
