"I'm moving forward. I'm not resigning, that would be giving them their all." Mayor Manuela Pintus, after receiving death threats, has no intention of resigning.
She talks about a difficult period. "The first threat came during the Covid era and was related to a mandatory medical treatment. But fortunately, everything has now been resolved. The other dates back to a few months ago: shortly before the elections, I received reports of threats against me from another person. To protect myself, I immediately reported the incident to law enforcement, but I can't go into detail because there's an ongoing investigation."
A very complicated period during which the mayor has had the support and support of the Carabinieri of the Arborea station, the State Police, and the Prefecture, as well as many friends who have stood by me. Two nights ago, the public announcement was made in the Council and the request to defuse the situation. "Tensions aren't helping. I've asked all the councilors for this cooperation, including the minority." Then she also thought of the other mayors, constantly exposed to attacks of all kinds. "It's unthinkable that governing a small municipality could put you at risk. We must defuse this climate," she concluded.
