Elisabetta Aldrovandi wrote that the GUP Luigi Riganti had scheduled the preliminary hearing for Andrea Sempio before the Tribunal of Pavia for February 25, 2027. According to Aldrovandi, the timing of the hearing — which could take place over multiple sessions and include requests for additional evidence — could render the defense's proposed request to suspend the trial while awaiting a decision on the review effectively pointless. She added that it could take months before a decision on the indictment is made, and in the meantime, the decision on the review could arrive. She also reported that Sempio had stated several times that he wanted to explain his position to the judge and dispel any doubts, adding that it could be the best choice. According to Aldrovandi, some constitutionalists had deemed the request for suspension unnecessary. #garlasco #tribunale #processo #giustizia (translated)
