Interior Minister Matteo Salvini
is under investigation for kidnapping migrants, Salvini said
Monday.
He said he is being probed for allegedly abducting migrants
allegedly held on a ship stopped from landing in Siracusa from
January 24 to 30 this year.
Salvini said the prosecutor in the case, Carmelo Zuccaro, had
filed to dismiss the case at the same time as he had submitted
the charges.
Earlier this year the Senate voted not to lift Salvini's
parliamentary immunity to face charges in another migrant
kidnapping case.
