Guiseppe Pinelli
Guiseppe Pinelli

Giuseppe “Pino” Pinelli (born 1928 October 21, killed 1969 December 15) was an italian anarchist railway worker “accidentally” defenestrated from the 4th floor of police station in Milan where he had been held following the attack of “Piazza Fontana” against the Bank of Agriculture of 1969 December 12.

Pinelli, secretary of the Anarchist Black Cross, was tossed through a window to his death by police, which became a national scandal.

Pietro Valpreda and others were also arrested, following the anti‐anarchist hysteria orchestrated by the government and press, accused of the bombing in Milan. Only much later is it revealed that the bombing was the work of right-wing fascists, in collusion with government reactionaries.

Pinelliʼs police murder was the subject of Nobel Prize‐winner Dario Foʼs play, Accidental Death of an Anarchist (play), filmed by Pasolini.
