Most immigrants have gone back to the 'reception' centre - where else can they go? but they are now free to come and go as they please.
Video inside the so-called 'centre of first reception' : Se questo è un uomo

The minister Roberto Maroni still clings to his policies to detain everybody on the island until they can get deported and go ahead wiht transforming the old NATO base Loran in a new deportation centre. The struggle continues. The most striking fact is that the local residents and the migrants have come together in solidarity. They have been eating and drinking together and having a jolly good time, though there are fears that too much drink could lead to incidents, but everything has run very smooth so far, despite the presence of more than 1000 migrants out and about! The days of protest went without incidents, apart from a couple of incidents on Satruday caused by the police attacking demonstators. An ambulance drove into the crowd and a cop kicked a local resident for no apparent reasons. In both cases the people reacted and the cops took the occasion to attack them. A 16 years old local boy was injuried. Berlusconi is blaming the Left for 'instigating' the migrants - as they had sent a delegation that criticized the centre.
