Killer Cop (Italian: La polizia ha le mani legate, literally the police's hands are tied) is a 1975 Italian poliziottesco-crime film directed in 1975 by Luciano Ercoli. The film's plot reprises the Piazza Fontana bombing which happened in Milan in 1969. The gun in the umbrella used in the movie is similar to a Bulgarian umbrella used in London in 1978 to kill Bulgarian dissident Georgi Markov.[2][page needed][3][page needed]
