New hearing in the Court of Assizes in Sassari for the endless Arcadia trial , which for 16 years has seen 18 Sardinian separatists on the stand , accused by the Cagliari DDA of subversive association with the aim of terrorism and subversion of the democratic order.
Today there was the deposition of other witnesses called by the prosecutor Paolo De Angelis in an attempt to support the accusatory system.
Particularly important is the deposition of the former president of the Confindustria of Nuoro Michele Denti , who was in office on 26 September 2002 when, on the eve of the arrival in Sardinia of the then Minister of the Interior Beppe Pisanu, a bomb was placed in front of the headquarters of the industrial .
At that time, he said, there was a "strong discontent" due to the uncertainty about the future of the Ottana industrial area, which is why he found an attack "absurd" "just as we were working to resolve the crisis by involving the social partners".
"Even today - comments the Libertade association - another roundup of witnesses for the prosecution was staged who reported on individual circumstances that were mostly irrelevant". Next meeting is on September 27, when 25 other witnesses for the prosecution are called to testify.
