New Security Package Adopted

A new security package was adopted on Thursday. The measure was fast-tracked following violence in Turin.

This package permits police to detain individuals suspected of causing trouble for up to 12 hours before demonstrations. The stated objective is to prevent the spread of unrest.

Critics of the package have described it as repressive.
