The Perugia Public Prosecutor's Office
will begin work on Monday on a complaint lodged by the DIS
department that coordinates Italy's intelligence agencies
against the Rome Public Prosecutor's Office headed by Francesco
Lo Voi over the leaking of a confidential report, sources said
on Saturday.
The case regards the publication by daily newspaper Domani of
information about Premier Giorgia Meloni's Chief of Staff
Gaetano Caputi coming from a classified document by the Aisi
intelligence agency.
It is alleged that Lo Voi's office received the document and
failed to take the necessary measures to prevent it from being
leaked.
Tension was already high between the government and Lo Voi's
office after it put Meloni and some other ministers in the
register of people being probed over the case of Osama Almasri
Najim, a Libyan judicial police chief released by Italy last
month days after being detained in Turin on an International
Criminal Court (ICC) warrant.
The non-magistrate members of the judiciary's self-governing
body, the CSM, nominated by the ruling centre-right coalition,
meanwhile, have requested that transfer and disciplinary
procedures be opened against Lo Voi over the leak.
They said relations between Lo Voi and the intelligence agencies
are now compromised.
The same CSM members had made a similar request in relation to
the Almasri case.
