Cacciatore shoots and hits a car in transit in Molina di Malo, in the province of Vicenza; the Associazione Cacciatori Veneti presents a complaint to clarify the matter after the facts reported by Miss Giada De Zen.
Maria Cristina Caretta, as regional President of the Venetian Hunter Association-CONFAVI presented a complaint to the Vicenza Public Prosecutor's Office to ask the investigating bodies to shed full light on the facts reported by Miss Giada De Zen who claims to have been a victim of a shotgun shot fromhunting which would have caused a hole in the door of his car while, according to him, he was passing along via Vittorio Veneto in Molina di Malo. We believe that the version of the facts exposed by Miss Giada De Zen and reported with great prominence in the local press, deserves a careful investigation by the investigating authorities - said the President Maria Cristina Caretta. We immediately stated that only an ignorant person or a person of bad faith can deliberately accuse the hunters of such an execrable act as the one of which Miss Giada De Zen claims to have been the victim.
These beliefs of ours are strengthened by examining the photo reported by the local media, from which it is mathematically impossible that the hole found on the door of his car could have been caused by a bullet fired by a cacciatore during the exercise of the hunting activity. It is easy to see by anyone with a minimum of ballistic knowledge and therefore also by the investigating authorities that a bullet fired from a smooth-bore rifle (the only type of weapon used by hunters in those places) cannot cause a hole of that size and that, if it was a firearm that caused that hole (which we doubt very much if the bullet was not found inside the car) it could only have been a rifled self-defense weapon.
Since, from the statements reported by the local media, the category of hunters seems to be portrayed as a criminal association, usually led to acts that can threaten the safety of people, we felt it necessary to present a complaint to the Public Prosecutor's Office. of Vicenza to ask for full light on the incident. We reserve the right to appear as a civil party in the criminal proceedings that will have to be opened against those responsible for the act denounced by De Zen, not discarding a priori the hypothesis that someone wanted to set up a petty staging with the specific purpose of deliberately and gratuitously tarnish the image of hunters.
While respecting the autonomy of the investigators' work - concluded the President of the Associazione Cacciatori Veneti-CONFAVI - we reiterate the invitation addressed to the Public Prosecutor's Office not to limit itself to investigating only the hunters, accused by De Zen of being those responsible for the gesture of which she claims to have been a victim, but to investigate also in other directions to verify if the unpleasant episode of which she claims to have been a victim is not attributable to a deliberate action by some malicious person who has nothing to do with it do with the category of hunters.
