In another sign of tension between
the ruling partners Tuesday, the 5-Star Movement (M5S) renewed a
call for League Transport Undersecretary Armano Siri, who has
been accused of taking a 30,000 euro bribe from a Sicilian
windfarm king linked to Cosa Nostra's no.1 fugitive, to step
down.
The M5S asked four questions including why had Siri on
several occasions proposed wind power boosting moves which the
M5S had always blocked.
They also asked to know whether League Cabinet Secretary
Giancarlo Giorgetti knew whether an assistant he had hired was
the son of Paolo Arata, the businessman who allegedly gave Siri
the bribe along with windfarm entrepreneur Vito Nicastri.
Arata Sr is allegedly Nicastri's 'wheeler-dealer', the M5S
said.
