Lega accounts seizure, Judge Nordio: “Salvini is right, it is a political act"

“Salvini is right when he talks about a political act”, Carlo Nordio declared it, in an interview with QN in which he defines the protagonism of those who investigate as "dangerous".. This is how the former deputy prosecutor of Venice commented on the seizure from 49 million euros ordered by the Court of Genoa on the assets of the Northern League after the conviction of Umberto Bossi and the former treasurer Francesco Belsito for electoral reimbursements.
“We need to be careful with measures of this type – he explained – which affect the development of the political dialectic. They should only be adopted if strictly necessary: I don't think they were. Thus there is a risk of altering the democratic game. In this sense, Salvini is right when he talks about a political act". More generally he then stated that "politics must regain confidence in itself if it wants to re-establish primacy over judicial action, otherwise it will remain subordinate to the judiciary, as it happens since 1993, that is, since Mani Pulite broke out”.
Salvini's statementsThe seizure of 49 million euros to the League is "madness. Any erroneous use by the treasurer of the old management amounts to just over 300 thousand euros. Jurisprudence in hand, once definitively convicted he had to return those. Da 300mila a 48 million dances a lot...". This is what the secretary of the League had declared earlier that day. “We don't have a penny, We have not received any public funding for two years. If someone made a mistake, go and ask this someone and not us". The League did not become a civil party in the trial of the Court of Genoa against Umberto Bossi and Francesco Belsito which resulted in the seizure of 49 million euros “because we were counting on there being justice in Italy, we considered ourselves the injured party".
“I'm sure that in the end they will agree with us – explained Salvini – but I don't want it to be too late”. “I wouldn't want – he added – the judges to agree with us in a year or two years” after the elections have taken place, when the League will no longer be able to operate. “It is clearly under political attack – he explained -. It's not that anyone wants to block the League because it is growing too much?”. “They are in the League's accounts today 30 thousand euros - underlined Salvini - they are seizing money that was recovered by militants" in the Carroccio parties "selling salami and frying chips". For Salvini the initiative of the Court of Genoa is "in perfect communist fascist style and outlaws a party that represents tens of thousands of Italian citizens". “This – he concluded – is a proletarian expropriation”.
“Because of the political choice of a judge there are millions of people who risk being left without a voice. It seems like we're joking aside but it's reality. Here we are not talking about red robes but ultra-red ones.". The leader of the Northern League says so, Matteo Salvini, on Radio Padania regarding the blocking of party funds. “It is clear – he adds – that in Pontida we will have to make important and demanding choices”. What happened “not even in Türkiye or Venezuela. Imagine – continues Salvini – if the activity of the third national party was blocked in France or Germany. It's something that when I tell it to my colleagues in the EU parliament they don't believe. Let's see if anyone will have the dignity to correct this mistake.", he adds.
“Like it or not this judge, we will get to govern. We will win and we will change Italy starting from the justice system which is insane. We are treated worse than mafiosi because we are scary".
