Communist Revolutionary Committees

Communist Revolutionary Committees (CoCoRi) was an Italian left-wing terrorist group with close to a hundred members active in Northern and Central Italy, chiefly the cities of Milan, Rome, and Padua. It had a legal as well as a militant wing and embraced a number of causes and activities without a necessarily consistent theme or goal, including protesting black market labor and heroin trafficking. Like other Italian leftist terrorist organizations, it committed attacks under a variety of names. The group primarily targeted law enforcement and security personnel and committed robberies to finance itself. The group dissolved its legal wing at a conference in mid-1978. Thereafter, some members considered joining Prima Linea but dissolved the entire organization instead.
