The investigating judge orders the compulsory indictment of undersecretary Andrea Delmastro, accused of revealing official secrecy for the documentation passed to his party colleague Donzelli, who reported to the Chamber of Deputies the content of conversations that took place during the hour of free time in prison di Bancali between Alfredo Cospito and prisoners of the 'Ndrangheta and Camorra.
The documents, claims the judge for the preliminary investigations, were secret, Delmastro knew it and in spite of everything he released them. A deal that seemed closed after the prosecutor's request for filing and which instead reopens sensationally.
And that adds to the storm over Daniela Santanché, the Minister of Tourism under investigation for bankruptcy in the Milanese investigation with Visibilia, the publishing group she founded, at the center.
«I take note of the choice of the Gip of Rome - commented Delmastro -. I will have the opportunity, before the Judge for the Preliminary Hearing, to insist on the non-place to proceed due to the non-existence of the objective element, as well as the subjective one. I am confident that the story will end positively, convinced that no secret has been violated, both from an objective and a subjective point of view".
The Delmastro case in particular infuriates Giorgia Meloni. The premier, who already defended him when the case broke out, is now locking him up. He does not speak directly, but leaks his thoughts through the usual "sources of Palazzo Chigi".
«In a trial it is not usual for the public party to ask for it to be dismissed and the magistrate to impose that the proceedings begin. In a proceeding in which the documents are classified, it is illegal to learn of being investigated by the newspapers, curiously on the day of the information in Parliament, after having requested information from the judicial authority. When this affects two government officials, it is legitimate to ask whether a part of the judiciary has chosen to play an active opposition role. And thus decided to inaugurate the electoral campaign for the European elections prematurely".
