Through his lawyer Alfredo Cospito - the leader of the informal anarchist federation on hunger strike to protest against the 41 bis - yesterday filed a request for deferment of the sentence, for health reasons, in the form of home detention at the Milan surveillance court . The request is now being examined by the judges who will have to set a hearing.
Yesterday the anarchist's lawyer, Flavio Rossi Albertini, filed the request for deferment of the sentence in the form of home detention at the Milan Surveillance Court. The judges (president Giovanna Di Rosa flanked by Ornella Anedda and two experts) will now have to establish the date of the hearing to discuss the request. Hearing that could be held on March 24th. The FAI ideologue's defense in the petition refers to health reasons (he has been on hunger strike since 20 October) which must lead the judges, according to the lawyer, to postpone the execution of the sentence and to send the 55-year-old under house arrest to sister's house and, therefore, also effectively revoking the 41bis, against which Cospito is struggling with fasting. The Milanese Surveillance Office, therefore, will have to examine a delicate issue, on which the jurisprudence has also expressed itself several times with interpretations, often denying the deferment of the sentence in cases in which the critical state of health is self-induced by the prisoner himself. Examinations on the anarchist's psychic condition will probably also be necessary , because if a mental pathology were hypothetically detected, the ok could be given to the deferral of the sentence. Among other things, a hearing before the Surveillance Court of Sassari, where Cospito was detained until the end of last January, is also set for March 24, according to what has been known. A panel will have to express itself on an appeal by the defense against the rejection of the request for deferral of the sentence, already decided by a judge in Sassari. In Milan, on the other hand, the application was presented directly to the Court and therefore the assessment will already be collective.
Meanwhile, yesterday the 55-year-old was transferred again from the Opera prison to the penitentiary medicine department of the San Paolo in Milan . He had too high potassium values and therefore a precautionary hospitalization was necessary to monitor the situation which, it seems, remains stable, albeit delicate. The values \u200b\u200bin yesterday evening, reportedly returned quite in line with his condition. In recent days Cospito has decided to take only water, salt and sugar and no supplements.
