There will always be an Italy: Horse's head sent to councillor

Nice pic at the link. "Drop the gun or the horse gets it. Capiche?
(ANSA) - Ostuni, April 22 - A horse's head was delivered to a southern Italian official on Monday night, police said Tuesday.

An anonymous phone call told police to go to the engineering studio of the deputy mayor of this southern town. They found the head of the animal ''freshly cut off by expert hands''.

Police are inspecting local butchers' shops and have also started questioning people known to be linked to an illegal trade in butchered animals. According to police, the Mafia-style message sent to centre-left Deputy Mayor Vincenzo Pumes may be linked to his work as head of the town council's personnel office.

That guy is going to shoot a big nail in that poor beast's forehead; IIRC, italians actually eat more horse meat than french people (as a matter of fact, horse meat is pretty uncommon, nowadays, this was a pre-consumerist society type of meat), just as they actually eat more snails and more frog legs. Not 100% certain, but I think they beat us for all of them, despite the clichés.
