Lex Anteinternet: Thursday, August 23, 1923. Trotsky schemes, Turke...:
Fr. Giovanni Minzoni, age 38, a Catholic Priest who opposed the fascist rule of Mussolini, was murdered in Argenta. It is widely assumed that fascist Italo Balbo ordered his murder.
Balbo briefly resigned from office, but would return and was the Governor General of Libya when World War Two broke out. He died in 1940 when an airplane he was a passenger in was shot down by friendly fire while trying to land at Tobruk.
