This is stated Francesco Petrelli, president of the Union of Italian Criminal Chambers and of the Committee for the Yes vote in the referendum on the separation of careers in the judiciary.

“The separation of careers does not weaken the judiciary and does not subject it to politics – observes Petrelli – it serves instead to make the judiciary clearer and more balanced functioning of justice, in full compliance with the principles of the Constitution.
