The former president of the Senate and former magistrate, Pietro Grasso , will participate in the commemoration ceremony of the thirtieth anniversary of the mafia massacres scheduled for Friday 16 September (at 11) in Cala d'Oliva , on the former prison island of Asinara , where, in the 1980s, Giovanni Falcone and Paolo Borsellino prepared the proceedings for the Palermo maxi-trial against Cosa Nostra.
The tribute to the memory of judges Falcone and Borsellino was commissioned by the festival "Thoughts and words: books and films at Asinara" and organized with the collaboration of the Municipality of Porto Torres and the Asinara National Park.
The event will be attended by the civil and military authorities of the area and a student representation from the schools of Porto Torres .
A laurel wreath will be laid at the "Red House" which housed the two magistrates and their families in the summer of 1985.
