(ANSA) - REGGIO CALABRIA, 04 AUG - The order of pre-trial detention in prison issued in the context of the "Breakfast" investigation, conducted by the ReggioCalabria Dda, against the former Forza Italia parliamentarian AmedeoMatacena, sentenced in via definitive for external competition in mafia association.

The revocation was ordered by the Gipdistrict of Reggio Calabria, Vincenza Bellini, with the contrary opinion of the Dda.

The investigating judge accepted the request presented by the defenders of Matacena, Marco Tullio Martino and Renato Vigna.

The judge also ordered the release of the assets of Matacena, who has been a refugee in Dubai, in the Arab Emirates for years.


   The release from seizure of the assets of Matacena was motivated by the Gip since the long time that has elapsed since the date of commission of the crimes contested by the former parliamentarian and by the exclusion, as a precautionary measure, of the alleged aggravating mafia.

In the same "Breakfast" trial, former Interior Minister ClaudioScajola and Matacena's ex wife, Chiara Rizzo, were arrested and sentenced in the first instance.

Furthermore, Judge Bellini confirmed the "gravitaindiziaria judgment" against Matacena, who, in the arrest order against him, was accused of fictitious ownership of assets, with the aggravating mafia.


   In a note, the lawyer Martino affirms that also the Attorney General of the Court of Cassation, in relation to a previous appeal, had requested the annulment of the precautionary detention order against Matacena in the context of the "Breakfast" investigation.


   "I thank my wife and my lawyers because, thanks to their commitment, the custody order issued against me as part of the" Breakfast "investigation has been revoked and the last seizure of my assets has also fallen, which now they return to my availability. In the end the truth has come out. Now only the icing on the cake is missing: the sentence of the European Court and justice, after so much injustice, will be done ".
