A supreme court prosecutor said
Monday that he has presented a new disciplinary procedure
against Puglia Governor Michele Emiliano to the Italian
judiciary's self-governing body, the CSM, over his bid to become
the leader of the centre-left Democratic Party (PD). Emiliano,
who is also the former mayor of Bari, is a magistrate who is on
leave of absence. He is accused of breaching the ban on
magistrates becoming members of political parties. He faces the
same accusation for being secretary and president of the PD in
Puglia.
