The investigation chamber of the Aix-en-Provence Court of Appeal said on Wednesday that the elements retained by the investigating judges “appear insufficient”. The lawyers of the penalty have filed a request for annulment of the indictment for “association of criminals”.
The investigation chamber of the Aix-en-Provence Court of Appeal (Bouches-du-Rhône) canceled, Wednesday, July 27, the judicial control of the Parisian penalty lawyer Pascal Garbarini. Historical lawyer for the head -called “small bar” strip, a team of Ajaccian thugs, Maître Garbarini was indicted for “criminal association” on June 14 by the investigating judges Anaïs Trubuilt and Thomas Hirth of the specialized interregional jurisdiction (Jirs) of Marseille as part of a judicial information opened in 2018 for money laundering. The judges suspect him of having exceeded his role of advice with his client Jacques Santoni.
This thickly paralyzed thugs following a motorcycle accident in 2003 is suspected of being the leader of this gang which, since the early 2000s, has imposed itself in the criminal landscape of Ajaccio and from its region. Extortion of funds, rackets, assassinations and attempts, laundering, drug trafficking, this gang, most of which are today in pre-trial detention, is renowned as one of the most formidable in Corsica-du-Sud.
By canceling the judicial control measure which struck the lawyer for a ban on contacting his client and the other persons implicated in this file, the investigating chamber followed the requisitions of the prosecution general. The latter noted that “the elements having founded the indictment of the head of association of criminals of Pascal Garbarini result from the interceptions of the conversations he could have with Jacques Santoni in the Parisian apartment of the latter, November 13 2019 and November 25, 2019 “. According to the public prosecutor’s office, with regard to these elements put forward by the judges of the jirs, the indictment on the grounds of association of criminals is not sufficiently supported.
“no material act to the offense “
In his motivations, the investigation chamber takes up almost words for words the arguments formulated in the requisitions. The magistrates of the Court of Appeal write in particular: “The elements retained by the investigating judges during the indictment of Pascal Garbarini and within the framework of their placement order under judicial supervision in order to describe the indices Graves and concordants who would make the commission likely by the person concerned of the criminal association in order to prepare a punished crime of ten years’ imprisonment, appear insufficient. “
