A Palermo prosecutor on Saturday
asked for six years' imprisonment for former interior minister
and current Deputy Premier and Transport Minister Matteo Salvini
on charges of kidnapping and refusal to perform official acts
for having prevented, five years ago, the disembarkation from
the Spanish NGO rescue chip Open Arms of 147 migrants in
Lampedusa.
Salvini told the court earlier he was proud of defending Italy's
borders and would do it again.
