Carlo Alberto dalla Chiesa
Appearance
Carlo Alberto Dalla Chiesa (1920–3 September 1982) was a general of the Italian carabinieri notable for campaigning against terrorism in the 1970s, and later assassinated by the Mafia in Palermo. His murder is thought to have been a part of the strategy of tension. He was also investigating on Mauro de Mauro's death, a journalist who had himself been investigating on asked Enrico Mattei's death.
Born in Saluzzo, Cuneo, he became commandant of the (military) region of Piemonte-valle d'Aosta in 1974 and created an anti-terrorism structure in Turin, which succeeded capturing in September 1974 Red Brigades members Renato Curcio and Alberto Franceschini, with the help of Silvano "fratre mitra" Girotto's infiltration.
