Italy to fingerprint all to avoid discrimination
Citat:
ROME: Italy may demand all its citizens be fingerprinted, a move aimed at defusing widespread criticism of government plans to force Roma people and their children to provide fingerprints as a way of tackling criminality.
Citat:
A parliamentary committee agreed on Wednesday that from 2010 all identity cards, which Italians already have to carry, should include the fingerprints of the bearer. The measure still has to pass through parliament.
"It will defuse the Roma question, (fingerprints) will be taken from everyone," opposition deputy Antonio Misani was quoted as saying by the Corriere della Sera newspaper's website.
Citat:
"Now we need immediately to suspend the Roma measure as it looks like there will be a decision that will be valid for everyone," said opposition leader Walter Veltroni.
