Delmastro trial, the judges accept the Democratic Party’s request: the four dem parliamentarians admitted as civil parties in the Cospito case

The judicial debate on the case in Piazzale Clodio promises to be very heated Andrea Delmastro Delle Vedove, the FdI deputy and undersecretary of Justice accused of revealing official secrecy in the Cospito case. The judges today accepted the civil action of the four parliamentarians of the Democratic Party – Andrea Orlando, Debora Serracchiani, Walter Verini and Sergio Lai – who went to visit the anarchist Alfredo Cospito in the Bancali prison in Sassari on 12 January.

Twenty days later, in the Chamber, the Melonian Giovanni Donzelli he accused them, citing a confidential report by Gom and Nic, the “secret services” of the country’s prisons, of having served the interests of the mafiosi. Obviously an uproar broke out, the Democratic Party asked for and obtained an honorary jury which acquitted Donzelli after his hearing in which he claimed to have only spoken verbally with Delmastro, without receiving confidential papers. It was in the Chamber Nordic to effectively defend Delmastro with the thesis that those relationships could not be considered entirely subject to secrecy, a secrecy that the ministry itself must establish.

But Delmastro still ended up under investigation by the Rome prosecutor’s office for having passed the confidential reports of Nic and Gom to Donzelli, with whom he also shares a home in Rome. Initially the deputy prosecutor Paolo Ielo had argued that there was no crime, even if the revelation had taken place, but he was unaware, while the investigating judge Emanuela Attura imposed the compulsory indictment.
