\"italics\"<\/a>By JTA*<\/strong><\/p>\n

Italian police are investigating the theft of a \u201cstumbling stone\u201d Holocaust memorial to an Auschwitz victim.<\/p>\n

The memorial, a gold-colored cobblestone-sized monument embedded in sidewalk, was stolen last week just a month after it was placed in Collegno, a suburb of Turin in northwest Italy.<\/p>\n

Collegno Mayor Francesco Casciano called the theft a \u201cdeplorable act that goes beyond vandalism\u201d as it took place at \u201ca time when a resurgence of neofascism\u201d threatens democratic society.<\/p>\n

The stumbling stone commemorated Massimo De Benedetti, who was deported from Collegno and killed in Auschwitz in October 1944.<\/p>\n

The theft was the latest in a spate of vandal attacks on stumbling stone memorials in Italy in recent weeks. These included the theft of one in Venice and defacement of one in Milan.<\/p>\n

The incidents have taken place in the run-up to general elections scheduled for March 4, in which the populist Five Star Movement and virulently anti-immigrant, far-right League Party are expected to make strong showings.<\/p>\n

On Feb. 3, a far-right activist and League supporter wounded six African migrants in a drive-by shooting in the central Italian town of Macerata. On Tuesday, Italy\u2019s Jewish leadership issued formal backing for a national anti-fascist demonstration scheduled to take place in Rome on Saturday but said it would not officially take part because of Shabbat.<\/p>\n
