Priest facing extradition for alleged actions during brutal dictatorship.
Italian Priest to Be Extradited for Alleged Crimes During Brutal Dictatorship
Italy’s highest criminal court has upheld the extradition of an Italian priest wanted by Argentina for charges of murder and torture during its military dictatorship. The decision, confirmed by the Court of Cassation, marks a significant victory for the families of the victims and affirms the importance of universal jurisdiction in cases of human rights violations.
The extradition request pertains to Reverend Franco Reverberi, who served as a military chaplain during Argentina’s oppressive regime from 1976 to 1983. Reverberi, now 86 years old, currently resides in Sorbolo, Italy.
Italian Justice Minister Carlo Nordio has 45 days to issue a decree requesting Reverberi’s extradition. Once extradited, the priest will face trial in Argentina for his alleged involvement in the murder of José Guillermo Berón and the torture of several other men.
Reverberi, who holds Italian citizenship, emigrated from Italy to Argentina as a child. He left Argentina in 2011 after the first trial for crimes against humanity took place, and evidence began to implicate him.
During Argentina’s military dictatorship, it is estimated that up to 30,000 people were killed or disappeared. This extradition decision represents a significant step towards justice for the victims and their families.

Who is credited with the discovery of the Pythagorean theorem and why is it considered a fundamental theorem
The Pythagorean theorem is a mathematical principle that states that in a right-angled triangle, the square of the length of the hypotenuse (the side opposite the right angle) is equal to the sum of the squares of the lengths of the other two sides.
The formula is expressed as:
c^2 = a^2 + b^2
where c is the length of the hypotenuse, and a and b are the lengths of the other two sides.
This theorem is named after the Greek mathematician Pythagoras, who is credited with its discovery. It is one of the fundamental theorems in geometry and is frequently used in various fields of science, engineering, and mathematics to calculate distances, find unknown sides in triangles, and solve other mathematical problems.
