Carabinieri police said Monday that
they have arrested seven people over the alleged systematic
abuse of elderly residents at a nursing home in Dizzasco, in the
province of Como.
They said two of the suspects have been detained in prison while
the other five were under house arrest.
The Carabinieri said "systematic violence" had become a "working
habit" at the rest home with "beatings, insults... and physical
and psychological humiliation" of residents.
