Regeni, failed summit between the prosecutors: Rome recalls ambassador – The Messenger

ROME – The decision comes at the conclusion and opens an official crisis between Italy and Egypt. It is the foreign minister Paolo Gentiloni to officially communicate: “It was recalled our ambassador in Cairo, Maurizio Massari, for consultations.” broken relationships, without exchanges, waiting to see what roads go further “to revive the effort made to ascertain the truth about the barbaric murder of Julius Regeni”. Moreover, the situation as it has evolved over the past two days, did not leave much room for negotiation. The syndicate led by prosecutor Giuseppe Pignatone and substitute Sergio Colaiocco has threatened several times to lose your temper in front of the absolute nothing that Egypt has put on the table of the investigation. Nothing requested was brought to us, if not meager twenty short pages written in Arabic, which the prosecutor has made instantly translate from ten performers who had brought with him, just to avoid misunderstandings. A move that has taken aback the Egyptian delegation that perhaps hoped to gain time.

REACTIONS

 The stance of our country has been motivated by the then Prime Minister Renzi, at the close of the Council of Ministers, said: “Italy has made a commitment to the Regeni family, with the memory of Julius, but also with dignity with each of us, that we would stop just in front of the truth. ” And the family of the young researcher, while admitting to being “very bitter”, he added: “We are confident that our institutions and all those who are fighting on our side this battle for justice, will not stop.”

 What was already evident at the end of the first day of the meeting, therefore, it became official with the press of the Rome prosecutors. A long note with which the chief pm lists one after the other requests remained unanswered from Cairo. No phone records, but those of the users are using two Italian friends of Julius in Egypt in January, while we had wondered more than ten. No cell phone zone where he was staying and where the researcher then disappeared. In this regard, the Egyptian judicial authorities’ announced that deliver the results at the end of their investigations, which are still in progress.

Yesterday, however, they only provided a report on the survey done after the discovery of the corpse, with accompanying photos, and a note that refers the trade union meeting which was held in Cairo on 11 December 2015, to which the young Italian had taken part. It being understood that the Egyptian police have denied having photographed Regeni on that occasion, because – they said – “it was a smaller meeting, we had no interest in that meeting.”

THE NEW COMMITMENT
 Italians investigators also try to make some effort and patience of availability, when they stress that “was reiterated by both parties to determine identify and bring to justice those responsible for what happened, whoever they are.” And again that “the Egyptian attorney has assured that the cooperation will continue through the exchange of investigative measures until it will reach the truth in order to all the circumstances that led to the Regeni death.” It remains and probably will remain unanswered, requesting information about the discovery of Jules documents in his sister’s house a bandit then killed along with his accomplices. Pignatone and Colaiocco have shown that they consider non-existent elements of a possible direct involvement of the criminal gang in the torture and killing of the Italian guy. The delegation, however, has put: “It will be possible to determine what role, if had the criminal gang in death, but only at the end of the investigation.” How to reiterate the thesis of their choice: Regeni killed during a robbery.
