eh...I firmly belive, that all are the same, not only in Italy. Once I was witness as ATCO on a trial to a mechanic, who managed to switch on the cessna cardinal while being outside the aircraft (don't ask). I was called at the end of the trial, when just before being dismissed by madam on the bench, she asked me: "sorry, what is UTC? All the times are with this UTC..."
Not to mention that all her case against the mechanic was that he endangered the safety of incoming A320 (it was night), since his plane ran away across the runway and over the fence, behind which she has found her resting place...
I have absolutely no doubt, that such sentence can be carried out in any EU country as well...
