Un 40-year-old hunter living in the province of Lecce denounced the Police Headquarters Salento after the suspension of the firearms license: the measure would have been motivated with a non-existent conviction, with a different and correct motivation after reporting to the Carabinieri. The fact happened last January: the Forestry took over the hunting activity by the 40-year-old in a protected area.
According to the hunter's lawyer, however, no court has ascertained the situation, even if the Lecce Police Headquarters decided to start an administrative procedure. The same defense also recalled how the police cannot behave in this way if there is no definitive sentence. The Police Headquarters has not heard any reasons e the firearms license was suspended for two years. This position has not changed even after an appeal to the Prefect and the complaint.
After 24 hours, however, the same Salento Police Headquarters confirmed the sanction, but with different reasons e added to those for which the proceedings had begun. The man turned to the Public Prosecutor's Office to ascertain a possible leak of news regarding the first complaint, given that the police rectification seemed strange. The 40-year-old is not willing to give up and the judicial dispute will serve to understand if there can be another evolution.
