Rome, 19 Nov. (LaPresse) – "I have always said that no state secrets were violated. The hypothesis of a conspiracy by the secret services and the violation of state secrets only served to sell more books to those who had an interest in this type of narrative. They should pay royalties to the support teacher who photographed that meeting. In the end, as we had hypothesised, the only secret will remain the nature of the talks between Renzi and Mancini on the sidelines of that motorway service station. If this country is a little more democratic today, it is thanks to the choice of that teacher who shared the documentation with journalists. As a result of that choice, she risked a trial with four years in prison, but the undersecretary to the Prime Minister with responsibility for the services issued a directive prohibiting the 007s from meeting politicians without authorisation from the top'. This is how Sigfrido Ranucci commented to LaPresse on the order to dismiss the case against Ranucci and the Report journalists on the Autogrill case. “I am pleased,” Ranucci emphasised, 'that the loyalty, rigour and fairness of the Report team, of those who work for the public service, has been proven once again. I am also happy for the memory of Franco di Mare. From up there, he will appreciate that the programme he championed once again has not disappointed him.
