«Do you have confidential papers in your hand?»- Corriere.it

Tension rises over the case of Alfredo Cospito. And it inflames Montecitorio. With Giovanni Donzelli (FdI) who attacks four dem deputies for having been in prison “to encourage” the anarchist who fasts against the 41 biswhile Cospito himself spoke to criminal figures: “Are you with the state or with the terrorists?”, he asked the dem in the Chamber. confidential cardsrequests the intervention of the Speaker of the Chamber Fontana, and a clarification to the Minister of Justice, Carlo Nordio, who will report to the Chamber today.

And with the undersecretary Giovanbattista Fazzolari which overshadows: «Someone spoke of a hypothesis of agreement for the easing of the hard prison to the mobsters. The first provision of the Meloni government was the confirmation of the imprisonment and after a few months we find the Cospito case which rekindles the debate on the easing of the 41 bis for him and therefore also for the others, mobsters included».

It all started in the Chamber. Donzelli, defining the anarchist «an influencer who is using the mafia to make the state surrender on the 41 bis» refers to conversations between the anarchist and a camorrist and then with the «killer» of the ‘ndragheta Francesco Presta: «Presta exhorted him: “go ahead”. Cospito replied: “not only anarchists are moving outside but also other associations. Now let’s see what happens in Rome.” And the boss: “it would be important for us to reach a European level and maybe they would lift our life imprisonment”». Donzelli again: «While he was talking to the mafia on January 12, he met him the PD MPs Serracchiani, Verini, Lai and Orlando who went to encourage him”.

Replicate the former Keeper of the Seals: ‘It is the first time in this Chamber that a Member of Parliament visiting a prison has been associated with crimes committed by prisoners. When we went to visit we could not know what conversation he had had. The dissemination of information that is in the interest of general security and confidential is serious. If the boss Messina Denaro were to go on hunger strike, the human question would arise for him as well».

Many protest in the Democratic Party. «He will respond to it at all timesi», says Debora Serracchiani. «Nordio clarify. Donzelli resigns» asks Giuseppe Provenzano. Even for Avs and Third pole, Donzelli has released confidential papers. “I didn’t get them at the Copasir» he replies. And the Undersecretary Delmastrofrom FdI, confirms: «Nothing secret, he asked me questions and I answered, as I would have done with any deputy”. The Speaker of the House, Lorenzo Fontana convenes the jury of honour: «Mutual respect has been violated». And Nordius he asks the chief of staff to reconstruct what happened.

Tomorrow briefing to the House of Foreign Minister Antonio Tajani and that of the Interior, Matteo Piantedosi. With them yesterday Nordio defended “the right and duty of parliamentarians to visit the prisoners”, he assured that “Cospito’s health is guaranteed”, but that the law is the same for everyone: “Whether one is an anarchist or a mafioso is the same». “If you give in with Cospito, you don’t see why you shouldn’t do it with Messina Denaro if he was fasting,” adds Piantedosi. “The state is under attack by an international anarchist, there is a risk of a union with other fringes,” advises Tajani.
