Vittorio Arrigoni in Gaza (by the NGO International Solidarity Movement website) The body of Vittorio Arrigoni (Read the portrait), the Italian pro-Palestinian activist kidnapped in the Gaza Strip last week by a commando ultra-Salafi extremist, was found in a apartment in Gaza City by Hamas militants at the end of a raid conducted in the middle of the night.
Arrigoni, who lived in Gaza since August 2008, was hanged (other sources suffocated) several hours before the expiry of the ultimatum that the kidnappers had imposed. Maybe just three hours after the kidnapping, claimed in a video on YouTube. The militants threatened to kill 16 to volunteer today if Hamas had not issued their "brethren" detainees.
