VOICED: Citizen watches get greenlight in Italy

In Verona, citizen patrols have been legalized by the Conservative government, influenced by the Northern League Party. These patrols, consisting of 200 volunteers, aim to reduce crime by taking over some duties previously handled by the police. While there has been a notable drop in crime, the patrols face criticism for their potential targeting of foreigners and similarities to Mussolini's fascist groups. The initiative has sparked political debate, with some local authorities opposing the patrols.
