Italian police magazine hit the right note
During the past few years
Constabulary magazine and a
number of police magazines
around the world have joined
forces to share information about
police initiatives and strategies
and policing in general.
 Much of this association has
come about through the work of
Nicola Zichella, a police officer
from Rome who has devoted
huge amounts of his spare time
making contact with police magazines
from Australia to the USA.
Nicola is now the Foreign
Affairs Editor of the excellent
Italian police magazine AtlasOrbis.
AtlasOrbis magazine is the
brainchild of Fabrizio Locurcio
and it is run on a non-profit making
basis, with all contributors
providing their services free of
charge.
Fabrizio, who is an employee
of Polizia Anticrimine at the
Rome headquarters of the State
Police of Italy, is also the magazine’s
editor-in-chief.
Nicola, along with Gianluca
Guerrisi, Enzo Poluzzi, Cesare
Guaglianone and Massimo
d’Anastasio, all contribute to the
magazine.
The magazine includes a section
in English so that overseas
officers can read these stories
and Italian officers can improve
their English.
 AtlasOrbis has conducted
many interviews with senior
police officers, politicians and
celebrities. The current issue
features an interview with former
police officer and world-famous
tenor, Alessandro Safina
(pictured).
Alessandro served as a police
officer in Florence, Italy, and still
has many friends there. While
serving as a police officer
Alessandro studied at the
Conservatorio di Musica “Luigi
Cherubini” in Florence before giving
up his police career to sing
full-time.
He said: “I was in the police
for five years and it is still in my
heart. It was not easy leaving the
police as I had so many good
memories.”
His singing has received
much praise over the years; the
most recent was last December
for his role as Count Danilo
Danilowitsch in the operetta La
Vedova Allegra.
In January this year he featured
in two duets in a Public
Broadcasting Service TV special
with Sarah Brightman in her concert,
Symphony in Vienna, and
he will be singing with Jose
Carreras in Rotterdam in May.
