BARI – About 60 swastikas were drawn last night with black paint on the perimeter wall of the municipal stadium "Stefano Vicino" of Gravina in Puglia (Bari). To tell the news is on Mayor Valente, who speaks of "indignation" against "hooligans evidently nostalgic of bad times gone" that "during the night, protected from the darkness in which they love to act cowardly, they entered the stadium, tracing with black paint dozens of swastikas on the perimeter wall ".

Today the match of the group H series D has been played between the Fbc Gravina with the Francavilla. The event was given the title "A football for racism – sport has a thousand colors".
Before the game the walls were cleaned up and "I, too, symbolically, I wanted to help – wrote the mayor – and where there were signs of death there are now symbols of love".
In a video posted on his fb page, the mayor has painted hearts instead of swastikas. Investigate the police.
