The French embassy in Moscow has received a package sent from Crimea and containing some bones and a syringe, as reported by RIA Novosti and Baza. The sender’s name on the package is Pietro Notarianni, a reference to the celebrated Italian film producer who died in 2006.
A pattern of intimidation by mail
This is already the third time the embassy receives a parcel of this kind. In June 2022, the French diplomatic mission received another bone-filled package listing the same sender. Later, in December, it got a package with a dead mouse and a spider. The diplomats alerted the police each time they received a suspicious package, but never heard of any inquiry results from the law enforcement.
Pietro Notarianni made his name as the producer of Luchino Visconti’s “The Leopard” (1963) and other classic films.
