Today at the Cremona prosecutor's office was the day of the interrogations of the two "excellent" prisoners in the football betting investigation. The two best-known players, namely the Lazio captain Stefano Mauri and the former Genoa player (at Padova this season) Omar Milanetto, but the real news was the intervention of the pm Di Martino in response to Buffon's statements: "There are no grounds for summoning him, but if you know something, speak up."
MILANETTO – First it was the turn of Milanetto, whose interview was defined by the investigating judge Guido Salvini as "non-productive". To interrogate the footballer, accused of sports fraud for having participated in the match between Lazio and Genoa 4-2 on 15 May 2011, there was also the prosecutor of Cremona Roberto Di Martino, who then spoke of the latest comments on the investigation ranging from Gigi Buffon, to Antonio Conte, to Prime Minister Monti. “Buffon's phrase (“Sometimes two wounded are better than one dead”, ed)? If it's an opinion I don't care because there is freedom of opinion and anything can be criticized, including the judiciary. If, on the other hand, you are referring to a specific situation and want to make me aware of something, please come forward. But I can't guess what he meant, nor call him up because there aren't the conditions and it would disturb Italy's approach to the European Championship, which I will also be rooting for. It should be him, through his lawyers, who should provide me with a few more elements".
On the idea of the premier Mario Monti of "stopping football for 2-3 years", Di Martino has a very precise opinion: “It was a provocation that goes intesta cum grano salis. I don't think football will stop.". The Cremona prosecutor then defends himself against the accusations of Antonio Conte: “I spoke to his lawyers And I understand your reaction, but you can't send corroboration information by notifying the suspect first. The search was done according to the rules and cannot be anticipated. He doesn't know these procedures and for this he was scandalized, but we also waited for the end of the championship before moving so as not to disturb the situation".
