Migrants, Musumeci attacks the Tar magistrate who has suspended his order: “She was a consultant for Zingaretti”

Following the suspension of the TAR given its ordinance on migrants, Governor Nello Musumeci attacks the magistrate who signed the decree, the president of the Administrative Court of Palermo María Cristina Quiligotti, upside down. “The national government has challenged our ordinance – says Musumeci – it did so in the TAR with a magistrate who does not seem to be above suspicion. In ‘bad language’ he was a consultant to Zingaretti, who is the head of the most important party in the world. Government. We denounce a bitter reality and in the face of this complaint the national government pretends not to understand and uses complacent magistrates ”. The reference is to an appointment among the “wise men of the Lazio region for regulatory simplification” by Quiligotti, who, however, was also a consultant to Minister Calderoli de la Liga and to the Prime Minister in the Berlusconi government in 2011. Musumeci However, he considers his left and Linked to the current government: “The decision of the TAR of Palermo enters into force, which annuls my ordinance, the infernal machine of power has started and produces effects: the machine of power knows that it does not we let ourselves be intimidated, “says Musumeci. For the National Association of Administrative Magistrates (Anma), the statements against Judge Quiligotti’s decree “have already exceeded the limit of a substantive, legal, technical criticism, and have acquired unacceptable tones and to be returned to the sender.”

Migrants, the TAR suspends the Musumeci ordinance: “It goes beyond the powers of the Regions”

In his decision, Quiligotti criticizes the Sicilian governor’s order on the merits, which “goes beyond the powers of the Regions” but above all is based on an assumption, that of the risk of spreading the coronavirus, which is not based on any analysis and specific data: “No rigorous investigation to demonstrate the existence of a specific worsening of the health risk linked to the spread of Covid-19 among the local population as a result of the migratory phenomenon,” reads the TAR decision.

Sicily, the figures say there is no migratory emergency: because the Tar rejects Musumeci

Musumeci adds to the dose speaking of “complacent government magistrates”: “We go ahead, of course – warns Musumeci – because beyond the legal Byzantines, we are convinced that we are on the side of reason. We are waging a battle of civilizations for defend the health of those from Sicily, not only of Sicilians, but also of those migrants who are treated as objects of speculation. Come on, don’t worry, we don’t stop at which one of some deceased priest who turns the other way. Rome knows it. If they are able, they can win this battle, but they win by force of reason, not by reason of force. ” Meanwhile, the governor has already made it known – the accesses and controls of the regional working group continue: on Tuesday morning it will be in Lampedusa and in the following days the more than 40 reception centers that are registered in Sicily will be ” carefully controlled “.

Reactions to the governor’s harsh statements were swift. For Fabio Mattei, president of Anma, “personally attacking a judge for a non-shared decision, questioning his autonomy is serious, because in this way the very independence of justice is questioned.” “Dr. Quiligotti – continues President Anma – is a servant of the State, and in the past she was a transversal legal and technical consultant, also to the Minister of the Calderoli League, to give just one example, as is often the case with magistrates that offer their “science and knowledge” for the proper functioning of public administration. Governor Musumeci’s, Mattei concludes, is therefore an erroneous and unacceptable pretext controversy: it must be returned to the sender. To defend Italy, as is often proclaimed, its institutions must first be respected, beginning with administrative justice called upon to resolve very delicate disputes with a significant impact on society as a whole. Unfortunately, in recent years, we have witnessed this bad practice, across the political spectrum, of attacking TAR alternately for unwanted decisions, which the ‘powerful on duty’ do not like, proving that Italian magistrates do not they look at nobody, they only apply the law ”.

With a note, the Lazio Region gudiata de Zingaretti specifies: “Dr. Maria Cristina Quiligotti was part of the Legislation Committee that was established in the Lazio Region at the beginning of the first legislature, in 2013.
Italian administrations that want to improve have always involved representatives of the judiciary in legislative production functions. Therefore, no form of political consultation with the President but institutional involvement in a body of qualified legal competence, these forms of collaboration must be treated with respect because they serve to improve legislative quality and, in any case, they must be recommended to those who subscribe. . by orders injurious to the prerogatives of the State “.

On the political front, the Democratic Party intervenes: “I learned that Nello Musumeci attacked the credibility of the magistrate who annulled his ordinance on migrants – says Deputy Santi Cappellani of the Democratic Party – I do not know if Maria Cristina Quiligotti was Zingaretti’s consultant in the past. This in no way justifies Musumeci’s clumsy attempt to air the hypothesis that he is “corrupt”, this is the brutal meaning behind the use of the term “complacent” and behind the phrase “not above any Suspicion”, used by this president of the Region. Lack of respect for institutions is exceeding all limits allowed by normal political dialectics. Hopefully we intervene in all possible forums. “
