Don Luigi Merolapriest known for his commitment against the Camorra and president of the Foundation ‘A Voce d’e Creature‘, was the victim of a car theft on the night of April 24. The accident occurred in Maranoin the province of Naples, near his home. This event follows a previous attack, which occurred in night of April 13thwhen his car was damaged by unknown assailants.
According to what he himself reports Don Merola, the theft occurred in an area where surveillance is dynamic and without video surveillance cameras. Furthermore, in the municipality of Maranothey register every night between 10 and 15 car thefts. This situation generates suspicions about the possibility that the act could be linked to the Camorra or to an intimidating action against the anti-Camorra priest.
Don Luigi Merola he said he hoped it was just common thieves, rather than an intimidating message. However, his anti-Camorra activity and the role of the FoundationA Voce d’e Creature‘ in the recovery of juvenile delinquency in neighborhoods Arenaccia and Poggioreale in Naplesmake it plausible that the accident could have more serious connotations.
The priest has suffered several thefts in the past, even within the same foundation, including tools and equipment for the pizzeria laboratory. These precedents make the recent loss of his company car particularly significant.
Despite the theft and possible threats, Don Luigi Merola he assured that he will not take a step back. He asked his supporters and entrepreneurs to help him immediately buy a new car to continue his work. His determination remains firm, with the declaration that “The ‘A Voce d’e Creature Foundation cannot be touched“.
