Rome, 2 October (LaPresse) – Lawyer Domenico Aiello, representing former Pavia prosecutor Mario Venditti, has filed an appeal with the Review Court against the search and seizure warrant executed last Friday as part of the Brescia Public Prosecutor's investigation. The investigation alleges that the now-retired magistrate committed the crime of corruption in judicial proceedings: according to the prosecution, he accepted money to dismiss the case against Andrea Sempio, who is once again under investigation by Pavia prosecutors for the murder of Chiara Poggi. In the appeal, filed a short while ago, the defence lawyer denounces a “distortion” of the prosecuting function.
