House arrest revoked –

The court of Latina has revoked the house arrest of Liliane Murekatete, wife of the deputy Aboubakar Soumahoro, and Marie Therese Mukamatsindo, mother-in-law of the parliamentarian. The obligation to remain at home has been revoked for the brother-in-law Michel Rukundo. The decision of the judges, who accepted the request of the lawyers Lorenzo Borrè, who defends Murekatete, and Francesca Roccato, was taken in light of the lack of precautionary needs. The panel that released Soumahoro’s wife is the same as the court of Latina before which the trial on the cooperatives involved in the management of asylum seekers and unaccompanied minors is underway. The charges contested under various titles and depending on the positions are fraud in public supplies, fraudulent bankruptcy (through distraction) and self-laundering. The two women, instead of house arrest, will have to go every day to sign at the Carabinieri station.
