The Italian judiciary's self-governing body, the CSM, has been asked to open a case about reported clashes between the prosecutors' offices in Rome and Naples over the investigation into alleged corruption at civil-service procurement agency CONSIP, sources said Wednesday.
The request was made by Pierantonio Zanettin, a non-magistrate member of the CSM nominated by the centre-right Forza Italia party, the sources said. Sports Minister Luca Lotti and ex-premier Matteo Renzi's father Tiziano are among those under investigation while high-profile Campania-based businessman Alfredo Romeo has been jailed.
On Monday it emerged that a Carabinieri police officer was under investigation too for the wrong attribution of a key wiretap that had suggested Tiziano Renzi had met Romeo.
According to investigators, the officer allegedly "knowingly omitted information".
"Who does wrong must pay," Tiziano Renzi said Tuesday.
