Moro, former Br Balzerani: “Talks with Persichetti to reconstruct the truth about via Fani”

“Yes, I can confirm Paolo’s insistence on reconstructing details. A battle between the rigor of historical research and the fragility of testimonial memory, between the meticulousness of retracing the details and the selection of memories decided by emotional waves. could result in the accusation of subversive association in solitary for Paolo and in the impediment of carrying out his research work was not so easy to foresee in those tiring encounters with related mutual frustrations. that nothing could affect the official version of shared memory. Never say never “. The former Br Barbara Balzerani writes it on Facebook commenting on a post by Paolo Persichetti relating to the investigation that sees him being investigated in Rome for aiding and abetting and accused, among other things, of having disclosed some passages of the draft report of the Commission of investigation into the kidnapping and murder of Aldo Moro, material considered confidential by the investigators. Balzerani is in some way a party to the dispute because, according to what emerged from the investigation papers, Persichetti is also accused of having omitted, in the book “Red Brigades, from factories to the spring campaign”, written in 2017 with historians Marco Clementi and Elisa Santalena, some passages on the via Fani ambush that would emerge instead from an exchange of emails with the former Brigadier Alvaro Loiacono and from the statements “made to the authors by Moretti, Seghetti and Balzerani during a series of conversations between 2006 and 2016 “. A choice that, according to the investigators, “could not only be of an editorial nature, but also ‘political'” and “on the edge of a possible form of aiding and abetting”. And that instead, according to Persichetti, was simply dictated by the impossibility of definitively resolving some knots and by the decision of the researchers to limit the information only to ascertained data.
