Amnesty criticises new Italian immigration law

But London-based Amnesty urged Italy's President Giorgio Napolitano to send the package back to parliament.
"Should this become law, it would represent a threat for the human rights of migrants and asylum-seekers in Italy and might lead to increased discrimination against Roma and Sinti," said David Diaz-Jogeix, Amnesty's deputy director for Europe and Central Asia.
"President Napolitano has an opportunity to stop this law that could damage Italy’s human rights, with particular impact on the rights of migrants and asylum-seekers, and disproportionately affect the Roma and Sinti."
