Cesar Battisti is extradited to Italy from Bolivia after being on the run for 39 years. He was originally convicted because he belonged to the Armed Proletarians for Communism (PAC), a far-felt terrorist group in Italy. He was also convicted for the murdering of two officials and for planning another murder that left a 14-year-old in a wheelchair. Battisti had been running and lived in France, Mexico and Brazil, however, the former president of Brazil Luiz Inacio Lula granted him refugee status in 2010. Battisti's story is one of the many stories of communist individuals that are on the run around the world. His story is another example of the constant battle from many countries against communism. Jair Bolsonaro, a Brazilian official communicated, "We will show the world our total repudiation and commitment to the fight against terrorism. Brazil deserves respect!"
