Charlie Hebdo sued by quake-hit Italian town over cartoon

Quote:

An Italian town heavily hit by last month's earthquake is taking legal action against Charlie Hebdo, after it portrayed victims as pasta dishes. Amatrice, where most of the 295 victims lived, filed an aggravated defamation complaint against the satirical French weekly magazine. Italian magistrates will decide whether the case can proceed. In response, Charlie Hebdo released a second cartoon, with the caption "Italians ... it's not Charlie Hebdo who built your homes, it's the Mafia!"
