[HIGHLIGHTS] Hands tied and an iron mask on his head: the 'treatment' that a man sick with an eating disorder in Italy has been receiving for 16 years

Bruno suffers from pica, an eating disorder that leads him to eat non-nutritive substances. The guarantor visited him a few days ago at the Aias center in Cortoghiana, where he has been hospitalized for 24 years.

Bruno's case had already been denounced some time ago by the president of the National Union of Associations for Mental Health, Gisella Trincas, and the Prosecutor's Office, former Health Minister Roberto Speranza and the Sardinia Regional Council.
