The 1922 Turin Massacre refers to the attack by Italian Fascists against members of a local labour movement in Turin, Italy.[1] The events began in Turin after Fascists raided and burned down of a trade union headquarters and attacks on two clubs of the Italian Socialist Party.[2] This was followed by Fascists taking a number of editors of the newspaper of the Communist Party of Italy hostage, taking them to the central park in Turin and threatening to execute them.[3] Fascists rounded up communists and trade unionists in the city and executed a number of them in gruesome manners with one victim being tied and dragged behind a truck until he died and another victim being bludgeoned to death.[3] Eleven people were killed and ten were seriously wounded by the Fascists.[3]
