Anne Frank diary to be read at Italian matches to condemn anti-Semitism


ROME (Reuters) - Italy's soccer authorities ruled on Tuesday that stadiums will hold a minute's silence at their next matches while a passage from Anne Frank's diary is read out, in response to anti-Semitic stickers posted by Lazio fans.

The stickers of the Holocaust victim wearing the jersey of Lazio's city rivals AS Roma were found on walls and bathrooms in a section of Rome's Olympic Stadium used by Lazio supporters during their Serie A match against Cagliari on Sunday.
