“In the investigation file there are new elements that led to the decision to release him from prison,” a spokesman for the Brussels prosecutor’s office told Italian news agency Ansa.
As reported by the Italian media, after almost two months in prison, Nicolo Figa Talamanca was released unconditionally by Belgian justice. This is the head of the NGO No Peace Without Justice, who was arrested on December 9, as part of the “Qatargate” investigation.
As underlined in the online edition of the Italian newspaper Il Fatto Quotidiano, “the decision to release Figa Talamanca was taken after his interrogation by the prosecutors, on Friday morning”. “In the investigation file there are new elements that led to the decision to release him from prison,” a spokesman for the Brussels prosecutor’s office told Italian news agency Ansa.
This decision, according to Il Fatto Quotidiano, was taken by the prosecutor Michel Clez and “could lead to new developments also regarding the other persons involved in the investigation and who have been arrested, but also in relation to the two MEPs Mark Tarabella and Andrea Coccolino, who are increasingly likely to be interrogated by Clez”.
