Almasri case, Nordio: "The documents we have contradict the newspapers." The email mystery

Political storm over the consequences of the Almasri case . From the investigation, which is nearing its conclusion, an email has emerged demonstrating that Justice Minister Carlo Nordio knew about Almasri's arrest , which took place in Turin on January 19th, as early as the very day . This is a significant detail that would contradict Nordio's thesis, who has always maintained he was unaware of it . For this reason, the opposition has loudly called for the minister's resignation and for the government to report to Parliament on what really happened. But now the Minister of Justice himself has broken the silence and confirmed the government's position.

"Regarding the Almasri case," Nordio says, " the government will report to Parliament when the time comes , but the documents we have radically contradict what has been reported in the newspapers ." There was also a document already prepared, just waiting to be signed, to mobilize the Attorney General's Office of the Rome Court of Appeal and ensure that Almasri was handed over to The Hague . However, this did not happen, for reasons that are still unclear. Almasri was freed and returned to Libya on a state flight.
