As told by the Doneafter thirty years the Nissen prosecutors and the National Anti-Mafia Directorate have returned to investigate the “black trail” regarding the mafia attack that killed the judge Giovanni Falcone: at the center of the investigations there are confidential investigative interviews in 1992, not usable in court, in which a repentant and a witness spoke of the presence of the right-wing extremist Delle Chiaie in Capaci, a month before the massacre. According to this story, all to be verified, Delle Chiaie met a mafia boss and then look for explosive in a quarry. The repentant is Alberto Cicero, (cousin of the boss Armando Bonanno and driver of another boss, Mariano Tullio Troia) who had been dead for some time already considered unreliable by the magistrates in other circumstances. The witness is her partner, Maria Romeo, still alive and interviewed on Monday evening by Report.

In a long press release, the Caltanissetta prosecutor Salvatore De Luca explains the reasons for the search, aimed at “verifying the authenticity of the sources“And that” does not concern in any way information activity carried out by this journalist “. De Luca refers to the content of the interviews by Report to Maria Romeo and the former carabiniere Walter Giustini, “from whom it emerged that, during the investigations conducted in 1992 by the Palermo Public Prosecutor’s Office, Alberto Lo Cicero provided valuable information about the prepair of the Capaci massacre as well as about the function performed by Biondino Salvatore as driver of the fugitive Salvatore Riina, many months before he was captured “(here the interview with Giustini by Marco Lillo in our newspaper). “These statements – writes the prosecutor – are totally denied from the documents acquired by this Public Prosecutor’s Office both in the Carabinieri archives and in the context of the related criminal proceedings of the Palermo Public Prosecutor’s Office. The negative feedback emerges from the transcripts of the environmental wiretapping made against Lo Cicero, before his collaboration, as well as by all minutes summary information and interrogation made by the same before the aforementioned events “.
