(ANSA) – REGGIO CALABRIA, NOV 13 – The lawyer and former senator Giancarlo Pittelli is still in prison, despite the re-examination of Reggio Calabria having granted him house arrest, involved, on charges of external competition in mafia association, in the investigation “Bad plant” on the Piromalli clan of the ‘Ndrangheta led by the Dda of Reggio.
In fact, the procedural quibble linked to the maintenance of the electronic bracelet for Pittelli, the application of which was ordered by the Court of Vibo Valentia when the former parliamentarian was granted house arrest also in the context of the “Rinascita Scott” procedure, which arose from an investigation by the Dda of Catanzaro, in which the criminal lawyer is always accused of external involvement in the mafia association.
“This situation – said Pittelli’s defenders, Salvatore Staiano and Guido Contestabile – cannot last any longer.
We have also involved the Criminal Chambers of Catanzaro and Reggio Calabria in the problem, which will have to take a position on this matter. There is a fundamental question that needs to be clarified. The failure to release Pittelli does not represent an act of insubordination on the part of the prison. Those in charge of the detention house are facing a real and concrete problem that someone should have solved earlier. The question needs to be clarified by who has the power to do so, which is certainly not the management of the prison facility. We are not attacking the prison which, not being part of the jurisdiction, cannot take responsibility for letting Pittelli out without the electronic bracelet in the absence of a specific provision by the competent judicial authority “.
