A judge serving on the Reggio
Calabria appeals court, Gaetano Maria Amato, has been arrested
by Messina police in connection with a probe into underage
pornography, judicial sources said Monday without giving further
details in order to defend the privacy of the victims. The
arrest was the latest in a string of such arrests across Italy
for kiddy porn offences. Amato had been working in the criminal
section of the court for about a year having spent the required
10 years in the civil section, sources said. The matter was
being treated as very confidential, the sources said.
