Has been Matteo Crucioli, Senator M5s, to request a further investigation on the health situation on board of Gregoretti, also regarding checks mentioned in the documentation sent by the Sicilian prosecutor, but not present. Gasparri puts the request to the vote and ends 10 to 10: rejected. The result is obtained with the vote of Gasparri himself who sides with the opposition, triggering the uproar.
Crucioli jumps into the chair and leaves the meeting, bringing with him the members of the majority who accuse: “The president lacks thirds. He didn’t have to vote, he took advantage of the absences. “The grievances arise from the fact that the plenum della Giunta saw absent Pietro Grasso (LeU) and Michele Giarrusso (M5s), on a mission with the anti-mafia in the USA. Furthermore, Crucioli’s request is explained it did not need to be put to the vote and therefore it could be accepted by the president because it was not “delayed”.
“The president said until yesterday that this is a judicial body, but he has behaved in a more political way than the others,” re-launches the group leader of the M5s in the Junta Elvira Evangelista. And he insists: “He was not an impartial president.” The senator of the Democratic Party echoes her Anna Rossomando: “It is an obvious forcing, today we should not have voted. Gasparri did not respect an institutional polite practice”.
The president defends himself by recalling: “I have the right to vote, as a member of the Executive “, also because he was the speaker of the case, he notes,” if I had considered that certain documents were missing and that there was a need for further information, I would have said it first. ” convened at 7pm, specifies that “it is not an organ in which people vote” And it cuts short: “There will be a prevailing proposal. If unanimity is not achieved, the question will be asked in the Council. “
