A deadly bomb. A death in a police station. A secret kept from the public.

In 1969, an explosion in Milan killed 17 people. The police accused a group of anarchists, but the story was not that simple.

In part one of this three-part mini-series on "Gli Anni Di Piombo" (The Years of Lead), we look at how this tragedy started one of the darkest times in Italian history.

Italy modernising fast, but divided and tense.
12 December 1969: bomb at Milan’s Piazza Fontana.
Seventeen dead, eighty-eight injured; shock across Italy.
Coordinated Rome bombs; no claim; anarchists blamed.
Anarchist Giuseppe Pinelli dies after police questioning; controversy.
Pietro Valpreda arrested; weak evidence; years before acquittal.
Evidence pointed to far-right group Ordine Nuovo.
Suspected cover-ups by police and secret services.
Strategy of tension; suspected Gladio links; extent unclear.
Impact: fear, ordinary victims, start of the Years of Lead.
