Flotilla, Scotto’s wife (PD): ‘Last message at 6 a.m., no information from authorities’

Rome, 2 October (LaPresse) – “How am I? I’m exhausted, I didn’t sleep last night. My husband and I exchanged messages on WhatsApp from 2 a.m. to 6:05 a.m. The last time he read one of my messages was at 6:15 a.m. If I understand correctly, the Israeli military boarded his boat, the Karma, and are taking them to the port of Ashod.” Elsa Bertholet, wife of MP Arturo Scotto, who was among those on a boat in the flotilla blocked by Israeli forces, told Rai Radio1, as a guest on Un Giorno da Pecora. “A few minutes ago, the messages I sent him were delivered. Arturo told me that he didn’t want to throw away his mobile phone because he had nothing to hide, so perhaps that’s what he did. ‘Arturo said he didn’t want to be treated any differently from the others,” she explained to Rai Radio1, ‘and several friends have told me that they know for sure that everything is going well. From the latest information, I know that he should arrive in Ashod around 2 p.m. today. However, I have not received any information from the authorities.‘ ’Worried? I am calm because he was too. I have to be calm for my children, who have seen me a little down. I missed my husband very much,” she concluded.
