Members of the High Council of the Judiciary (CSM) have called for an investigation to be launched to protect Santi Bologna, the investigating magistrate in Caltanissetta, who has been attacked by the former public prosecutor, now a senator for the Five Star Movement. But what is particularly telling is the silence of the National Magistrates’ Association, which has always been at the forefront when a magistrate is attacked by politicians.
