(ANSA) – ROME, MAY 10 – “I have already expressed my opinion on the Toti case, not so much as a minister but as a magistrate. We must always have caution and respect, we will await the results of a possible appeal. It struck me that someone expects that let the suspect prove his innocence, this is blasphemy in a democratic civilization. It is the accuser who must prove the guilt of the suspect. We await the results of this physiological dynamic of the trial.” Thus the Minister of Justice, Carlo Nordio, responding to a question on the sidelines of the G7 in Venice, regarding the Genoa investigation, which led to the arrests of the governor of Liguria. “The government has always shown itself to be a guarantor towards everyone. Our watchword is the emphasis on the presumption of innocence. I have said from day one that our guaranteeism is expressed in an emphasis on the presumption of innocence and then in a certainty of punishment”, added Nordio. (HANDLE).
