The political controversy over the Almasri case does not subside. The man accused by the International Criminal Court of being the head of the "torturers" in the Libyan prison of Mitiga was arrested in Italy but released and sent back to his homeland on a state flight , a decision which led to a complaint and a notice of investigation being sent to Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni and to ministers Nordio, Piantedosi and Mantovano .

The accusation leveled at Italian parliamentarians by Bruno Vespa during the latest episode of the Rai programme “Cinque Minuti” is now making the rounds on social media.

"What the gentlemen behind the red light do not know but what parliamentarians of every party know - thundered Vespa - is that in every State very dirty things are done, even dealing with torturers for national security , this happens in every State in the world". Words that refer above all to the requests for explanations addressed by the opposition to the Government regarding the reasons that led to the release and expulsion of Almasri.

Vespa's "outburst" has, of course, triggered new reactions . "Parliament is not meeting - and this is a huge thing, which is being passed over in silence - because the Government does not want to report to the Chamber on the affair of the Libyan general who was first arrested and then brought home on a state flight ," said the leader of Italia Viva Matteo Renzi in his Enews. Adding: "The Prime Minister is commenting on this affair on social media, at events organized by Nicola Porro, with press releases to friendly journalists who are getting heated up in her defense, as an unleashed Bruno Vespa did yesterday in front of millions of Italians . But they are not coming to Parliament because - they explained to us - there is an investigation underway and they cannot talk about it," Renzi added, according to whom "it is incredible that no one points out that it is very serious that the Government cancels on its own initiative the information to Parliament from the Minister of the Interior ."
