Deputy Premier and Transport Minister Matteo Salvini’s League party said Thursday that it was demanding the head of Christian Greco, the director of Turin’s Egyptian Museum, for a discount he gave in the past to Muslim visitors.
League Deputy Secretary Andrea Crippa said that Greco should “perform an act of dignity and resign,” arguing he was guilty of being “racist towards Italians and Christians”.
“We’ll do everything to have him kicked out and we ask Culture Minister (Gennaro) Sangiuliano to sack him if he doesn’t resign,” Crippa told Affaritaliani.it He said the case of the discount, which dates back some time, led to a legal battle that culminated with him being cleared after Greco reported him for asking people to protest against it.
