Fight against pyrotechnics by the Carabinieri of the Quartu Company in view of the end-of-year holidays and New Year's Eve. Controls in the area have already started. The objective is to guarantee the safety of citizens.
The action taken by the Carabinieri should be seen as an action to combat the import and sale of fireworks and goods that do not comply with the safety standards imposed by national and European Union legislation. The controls will be particularly strict with the police forces who will operate in Quartu, on the coast and in the neighboring centers that are part of the same Company of via Milano. The carabinieri of the mobile radio operations unit and the stations are involved. The main objective is to also prevent misfortunes linked to the indiscriminate use of devices such as "flares, raudi and luminous fountains", made not in accordance with the law which cost less but which are very dangerous for the safety of those who use them and for the victims on whom the explosives could fall.
The same carabinieri are already mobilized to control the roads, in particular for compliance with speed limits and all road traffic rules: there will certainly be no shortage of checkpoints and alcohol tests when the need arises.
The patrols will be coordinated by captains Michele Cerri, commander of the Quartu Company, and Ignazio Cabras, commander of the mobile radio unit. A massive presence also against vandalism raids, car fires, thefts and fights. With stakeouts in the points of greatest risk.
