Italian officials have received letters
containing bullets and letter bombs in last few days as extremists protest
against austerity plan. An official from Equitalia, Italian tax collection
agency was injured in face and hand after opening a letter bomb. Italian
radicals claimed they have also tried to attack Josef Ackerman in a similar way.
Monti said that violence should be stopped before it turns into terrorism
similar to that in 1970s and 1980s.
