++ Bologna judges didn't attack political sphere- lawyers ++

(ANSA) - ROME, NOV 2 - The Italian Criminal Lawyers Association on Saturday defended the Bologna judges who referred a new government measure defining a list of safe countries for repatriation to the European Court of Justice, a move that sparked accusations that the judiciary was encroaching the political realm.
    "The Court of Bologna moved with particular prudence by placing its requests within the correct supranational and national normative and jurisprudential parameters," said the association's president Francesco Petrelli. (ANSA).
