Di Pietro, ‘it is wrong that with reform the autonomy and independence of judges is reduced’ – Il Tempo

Rome, 11 November (Adnkronos) – I support the separation of careers, in the yes committee of the Einaudi foundation, because “I have always been like before, I was a PM then and I feel like a PM in my soul now, and I feel obliged to tell citizens about the real state of affairs, with these reforms which, regardless of who wants to carry them out, are necessary to complete the reform framework that was born in ’89”. The arraignment process, the judge over the parties, on the one hand the prosecutor, on the other the lawyer, “first there is a judge who conducts an investigation and then decides: did I do it well or badly?”. “But they didn’t complete the reform framework at that time.” So Antonio Di Pietro in Five Minutes on Rai 1.

“I want citizens – he continued – to be able to say yes or no by knowing what this reform actually is, namely reform of the justice system.

“This reform has robbed the CSM of its authority to evaluate itself and entrusted it to other courts with different discipline. So the disciplinary evaluation is not carried out according to the flow, according to the ANM’s indications. We have cases where sitting judges who may have been convicted continue to do the same job in the same place, there is something jarring. Don’t listen to those who make you believe that you are subordinate to the executive, that the Prosecutor has become a super policeman. If he respects the law, who doesn’t want a stronger PM?”, he concluded.
