"It is necessary to intervene on the one hand with the Inspectorate General to verify that there are no leaks of news from the prosecutors themselves, on the other hand with a more stringent rule. And then I say it honestly, yes, even in the newspapers".
So Andrea Delmastro, Member of Parliament of the Brothers of Italy and Undersecretary of State for Justice, at
d Agorà Rai Tre,
on the interventions to combat the disclosure of wiretaps.
When asked what he means by interventions in the newspapers, he replies: "They are being studied precisely because we realize that we must act with the utmost prudence with respect to a right which is the right to report".
"Interceptions are an element of the investigation and must be limited to it also for the proper functioning of the investigations themselves. For mafia and terrorism crimes they are fundamental. The government approved a Rave decree which contained the reinstatement of life imprisonment therefore a the first blow to the mafia was dealt by this executive. Fdi did not vote for the Cartabia reform and the change approved yesterday in the CDM full of holes ", said
Tommaso Foti,
group leader of Fdi in the Chamber at Coffee break on La7.
"The government has gone from saying that mafia members don't talk on the phone to saying that wiretaps are used for mafia and terrorism crimes up to opening up to crimes such as corruption - so the leader of the 5 Star Movement in the Senate
Barbara Floridia
intervening a Start on SkyTG24 -, with a series of truly embarrassing somersaults and reverses. Wiretaps are always an essential tool for investigations, it is absurd that the judiciary and law enforcement agencies can be deprived of them compared to today. There is already a law against abuse just apply it."
The debate on the regulation of interceptions risks being "in fact already overcome by organized crime which speaks explicitly of drug and arms trafficking on new and sophisticated IT platforms. The risk to be countered is that it flies faster than the law": to say so is the prosecutor of the Republic of
Perugia Raffaele Cantone
, former president of Anac for a long time.
Which - focusing with ANSA on the current debate in progress - goes beyond the comparison that there is, for example, on the trojan computer sensor.
"Without wiretaps it would be practically impossible to investigate the facts of corruption", Cantone reiterated in any case.
Underlining once again its importance, as was also done for the latest survey conducted by his Office and which involves some employees of the Perugia Revenue Agency.
"Corruption - he points out - is a crime by its nature that is difficult to bring to light. In fact, there are no witnesses, there are no complaints and not even offended parties. Often it comes from other investigations, such as, to name one, the mafia case capital. Without interceptions, there is the risk of being able to intervene only on secondary facts".
Cantone deems the use of the trojan (a computer virus that can transform the microphone of the mobile phone into a listening tool also for environmental interceptions) "indispensable" "in particular for all those investigations where there is a strong code of silence".
"Its use - he explains - is now regulated in a very clear and precise way. But this issue is in fact already overcome by the crime that moves on the new platforms. Episodes that have already emerged also in some of our investigations".
"Organized crime is much more advanced than you think and we have to understand how to deal with it" concludes Cantone.
