Margherita Cagol
Margherita Cagol was a prominent figure in the Italian left-wing militant group known as the Brigate Rosse (Red Brigades). Born into a family with a strong political background, she became a key operative in the group during the 1970s, actively participating in terrorist activities against the Italian state. Cagol was known for her dedication to the radical cause and was deeply involved in high-profile kidnappings and violent confrontations. Tragically, she was killed in a shootout with police in 1975, during a failed attempt to escape following the kidnapping of businessman Vittorio Vallarino Gancia. Cagol's life and actions remain a subject of controversy and discussion in the context of Italy's tumultuous political history.
