Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni is at the center of a political storm following the publication of a controversial email by magistrate Marco Patarnello.
The email, which was made public by the newspaper Il Tempo, describes Meloni as a political threat due to her lack of personal legal entanglements, suggesting her actions are driven purely by political vision.
This has sparked a heated debate about the politicization of the judiciary in Italy.
Members of Meloni's party, Fratelli d'Italia, have expressed concern over what they see as a judicial overreach into political matters.
The controversy follows a recent court decision in Rome that halted the detention of migrants in Albania, further fueling tensions between the government and the judiciary.
Calls for clarity and accountability have been made, with some politicians urging an investigation into the judiciary's impartiality.
