Soumahoro, the activist-deputy who is now embarrassing Verdi and the Left: “Make it clear”
[ad_1]
First the story involving his mother-in-law and his wife (he has always declared himself a stranger) who ended up under the scrutiny of the judiciary for the management of two cooperatives in the province of Latina. Then the doubts about thousands of euros collected to donate toys in a migrant ghetto where, however, there are very few minors. They are the shadows on Aboubakar Soumahoro, the Ivorian-born trade unionist and deputy elected with the Green-Left alliance who now risks being suspended by the movement with which he arrived in the Chamber on 25 September.
The request for clarification from Verdi and the Left
Alleanza Verdi e Sinistra have requested a meeting with its deputy Soumahoro to “have from him elements of evaluation that help to clarify” because, net of personal solidarity and the judicial aspects “which will be clarified in the appropriate fora”, the case “takes also a political importance that concerns all those who, like us and Soumahoro, play a public role».
Nicola Fratoianni, leader of the Left, said in Agorà on Rai Tre: «We will meet him in these hours, in these days for a comparison. I think that the judicial affair must always be kept distinct, very clearly, which, moreover, from what we read does not even seem to involve him directly and in any case the judiciary works on the judicial field, those who carry out the investigations work, do not intervene as far as I know it concerns, at least directly, the political debate. Then there is the dimension of politics which concerns labor law issues. And on this I think it is right to have a direct comparison. When we have had it in the next few hours, everyone will make evaluations ». There is no hypothesis of suspension at stake, sources from the red-green alliance assure
The inquiry into cooperatives
The story involving the mother-in-law Marie Therese Mukamitsindo and his wife Liliane Murekatete concerns their role in the management of two pro-migrant cooperatives in the province of Latina, the Aid Consortium and the Karibu. The Pontine prosecutor is investigating (at the moment without the hypothesis of a crime) for any irregularities in the contracts but there is also talk of poor conditions of assistance for minors housed in those structures. The Finance Police would have started months ago checks for the crime of fraud for non-payment of wages, as had been reported by about thirty workers. Times, circumstances and numbers that have been confirmed by the story of the trade unionists who have given them support: «At the beginning – explained the secretary of Uiltucs of Latina Gianfranco Cartisano – there were a dozen, even mothers who reported irregularities to us. Then others also took courage. We followed 26 people. Salaries were at least 12 months behind schedule, but for four female workers even 18 and 22 months late». The matter is delicate because the two coops have also been entrusted with reception services for asylum seekers in the Pontine area, and the unions refer to projects “financed by the Lazio Region and various municipalities in the province, including Latina”.
Marie Therese Mukamitsindo, president of the board of directors of “Karibu” and mother-in-law of the deputy of the Alleanza Verdi e Sinistra, defended herself by making it clear that if the salaries have not been paid it is “because they too”, the cooperative, “are waiting for receive money from public clients. Indeed, they would be pressing precisely “in an attempt to satisfy the debt positions towards the workers”.
