There is shock in Italy after swastikas were daubed this week on the Rome tomb of Alfredino Rampi, a six-year-old boy who died after falling into a well in Vermicino, a village near Frascati, on 10 June 1981.


The failed three-day rescue bid for the boy was televised live in the first such event in Italy, gripping the nation.
