Il maxi processo Askatasuna vede imputate diverse persone per associazione per delinquere, dopo che il primo grado si è concluso con l'assoluzione.
"Askatasuna è diventata lo spauracchio perfetto, il nemico perfetto". Dana Lauriola, storica attivista dell'ex centro sociale torinese, lo ha detto oggi in Corte d'Appello nel corso del processo dove insieme a 15 compagni è imputata di associazione per delinquere.
La donna ne ha parlato per rispondere a una domanda sul contenuto di una intercettazione di alcuni anni fa: "Penso - così ha spiegato il senso della conversazione - che utilizzare lo spauracchio di Askatasuna per depotenziare e sminuire il movimento No Tav sia una strategia molto utilizzata a livello mediatico. E non mi vede d'accordo. Lo pensavo allora e lo pensavo oggi".
Lauriola, ha anche precisato di aver partecipato alle attività del movimento No Tav della Valle di Susa, dove abita, in maniera "più continuativa e consistente". "Per mesi - ha poi sottolineato - sono stata soggetta a intercettazioni telefoniche e tematiche.
In casa mia furono piazzate tre cimici. Non ho mai auspicato o evocato violenze o scontri con le forze dell'ordine. Spero che questo abbia un valore".
Il maxi processo Askatasuna è terminato, in primo grado, con l'assoluzione degli imputati dall'accusa di associazione per delinquere.

The Turin Juvenile Prosecutor's Office asked the Court of Appeal to overturn the acquittal of two boys aged 14 and 15 accused of having subjected a peer with intellectual and mental disabilities to over twelve hours of violence, including sexual abuse, forced shaving, burning with a cigarette and being forced to enter the Dora river, during the night between 31 October and 1 November 2025. The complaint came from the victim and her mother, who he had also recounted the incident on social media. Prosecutors argue that the necessary consensus to qualify the acts as 'jokes' was lacking, highlighting the asymmetry of understanding between the participants.

The Sion prosecutor's office has opened an investigation into alleged leaks in the investigation into the New Year's Eve massacre in Crans-Montana, which caused 41 deaths and 115 injuries. Civil party lawyers and journalists ended up in the crosshairs, accused of having disseminated secret documents. Some defenses hypothesize asking for a reduction of the sentence for the accused, citing the intense media exposure and the popular hatred generated, referring to article 47 of the Swiss penal code. The new file, against unknown persons, is entrusted to the prosecutor Laurent Mosching, delegated by the deputy attorney general Catherine Seppey, and includes complaints from the lawyers of the suspects and the Organization cantonale valaisanne des secours for the disclosure of the audio of the emergency medical calls. The lawyers sent press releases to the prosecutor's office calling for urgent measures to stop the leaks and identify the perpetrators, arguing that the publication of interrogations and key documents could influence judicial authorities and witnesses. Despite the measures already adopted, such as the secure electronic transfer of materials and checks during hearings in the armored room of the Sion Polytechnic, a lawyer was forced by the police to delete a photo taken during the hearing. Prosecutor Mosching was provided with investigative tools such as postal tracking data and metadata from electronic file transfers. Civil parties and journalists are at the center of attention, with possible charges for violation of the Swiss criminal code over the publication of secret official hearings.
