Provenzano is controversy over 41a to the end. The last no to scarcerarlo when he was already in a coma – The Republic

The “criminal record and the symbolic value of his criminal path” expose, “if not adequately protected in the person” and “being in extreme physical weakness,” “possible ‘retaliation’ connected to his criminal path, to the many murders volunteers of whom was found guilty, the gangster “association of which he was” head until his arrest. “

And ‘the ultimate motivation with which, just two days ago, the supervising judge in Milan has 2 rejected yet another instance attorney Rosalba Di Gregorio, who called for the release of the boss now dying and, in the alternative, the withdrawal of rigorous imprisonment for Bernardo Provenzano saw the further deterioration of his health. Now that the boss is dead without his wife and children have been able to stand by him in the past 48 hours of life waiting for a permit for a new visit after that of 10 July, the rise of the controversy tones.

“physicians – said the lawyer Di Gregorio – had told her family to go to Milan, where he was detained at San Paolo in the 41 bis regime, because they were missing a few hours after his death. relatives not seen him for Sunday, have benefited only the monthly interview of July and it is absurd. to pass the last moments with him his son had done Monday the request of the Dap, an extraordinary permission to see his father. But he was denied and arrived only today this morning, after the death. mine is a rage of a defender who unsuccessfully tried to explain that Italy was doing something inhuman to prevent Provenzano to have contacts with organized crime – continues the lawyer Di Gregorio – the real prisoners to 41a are the relatives, the restriction scheme was applied to the children and preventing his wife to see him. E ‘for over three years that my client was no longer in a position to understand or where he was or to speak: it was a plant-feeding. Yet the family was prevented. “

Roberto Piscitello, general manager of the treatment of prisoners and the Ministry of Justice, has assured that Provenzano has always been guaranteed all the medical care they need.” The conditions Bernardo Provenzano – he said – have further worsened last Friday due to a lung infection. Provenzano went into a coma on the same day. The health hospital in Milan, along with the Dap, immediately warned the family that arrived and were able to take advantage of a meeting with their relative. The regime 41a in anything has aggravated the Provenzano health: indeed in the two hospitals where it was – held Parma and Milan – receive prompt and effective treatment. “

Several times, l ‘ Di Gregorio attorney had asked that the boss could be admitted to the ordinary prison circuit in order to have close family members as more surveys had established that its neurodegenerative conditions allowed him no more to be receptive and to be able to place orders or posts outside prison. but, with the opinion of most of attorney and the DNA, the minister of justice (the last time in April) he had always felt obliged to acknowledge the harsh prison regime.

So much so that the family had decided appeal to the European Court of human rights that had already started the examination of the application filed in 2013 claiming that his detention, and in particular the regime of 41a, were incompatible with his state of health. according to the Court’s rules of Strasbourg the examination of the application may proceed even if the person who suffered the violation has died. In 2013 the Court had rejected the lawyer’s request for Provenzano to require the Italian Government for the immediate release of the boss.

And in controversy, with a post on Facebook intervenes Assistant Attorney General in Palermo Nico Gozzo that defines a “revenge” the confirmation of 41a to Provenzano: “ Right now – writes Gozzo – I feel well to say that the Italian State could have, in recent years, to mark their difference. Far feel, when Provenzano “there was no longer with the head”, the difference between a state of law, which applies the rules, even against a mafia – and then, if one does not reason and does not communicate, can not be dangerous – and the beasts of the Cosa Nostra, that the rules they make only their own use, always treading on human life. and instead it was decided to continue to apply the 41 bis to a man already dead brain, for some time. with what giving birth to the idea, in some, that Justice may be confused with revenge. Or that the law is not equal for everyone.
Is what, for me, is unacceptable. “
