“There is no longer any reason for this person to retain his acquired citizenship—that is, Italian citizenship. He should be prosecuted in Morocco, his country of origin.” So said Roberto Vannacci, member of the European Parliament for Futuro Nazionale, in an interview on the sidelines of the plenary session at the European Parliament in Strasbourg, commenting on the events in Modena, where 31-year-old El Koudri plowed his car into a crowd, seriously injuring at least two people who had their legs amputated. He concluded: “Also because if he serves his sentence here, we’d have to pay 140 euros a day. For the sentence I hope this criminal receives, it would mean years and years and years and decades of expenses for a person who fundamentally hates us.”
