Two dogs belonging to Pino Maniaci, head of Sicilian TV station Telejato, are found hanging from a metal post in a yard.Pino Maniaci, head of Telejato, a Sicilian TV station, is known for at least two things. One is his love of animals. He has two dogs: a belgian shepherd and an english setter.Or rather, he had. On Wednesday afternoon, they were found hanged from a metal post in a yard near Maniaci’s place of work.That almost certainly had to do with the other reason for which the journalist is known – his fearless investigation of the Sicilian mafia. He has been under police protection since 2007 and just last week a car he owns was set alight outside his channel’s studios in the town of Partinico, near Palermo.
