There is no peace for Aboubakar Soumahoro . New tile for the deputy elected with the Green and Left Alliance and then merged into the mixed group after the cooperative case which in recent days led to the arrest of his wife, mother-in-law and brother-in-law, all of whom ended up under house arrest.

This time the matter is personal: the Court of Appeal of Bologna sent to the Chamber a report on the parliamentarian in which he contests some irregularities on the contributions received in the electoral campaign for the 2022 elections, asking for his dismissal as a parliamentarian. The House electoral commission has already started the procedures .

Soumahoro says he is calm, convinced that the protests raised concern merely formal aspects: «The funds, as required by law, were all used for the electoral campaign. My lawyers are preparing the appeal against the decision of the Court of Appeal of Bologna, to precisely refute the charges that have been raised against me . The elections board, which is the competent parliamentary body, will receive my documentation as soon as possible to shed full light on every aspect. I am calm, I will demonstrate my absolute transparency in the appropriate places", explains Soumahoro.

Yesterday Liliane Murekatete , Soumahoro's wife arrested for alleged irregularities in the management of public funds by her co-ops dealing with migrants, rejected the accusations in spontaneous statements before the investigating judge: « I didn't use that money for myself , the only payments that I made were the salaries and expenses to purchase food for the guests of the facility,” he said.
