Surveillance by the Italian military secret service SISMI

In early July 2007, the Italian Supreme Judicial Council revealed that SISMI had monitored prominent judges and prosecutors in Italy between 2001 and 2006. Affected were, among others, public prosecutor Antonio Ingroia, who investigated cross-links between the Mafia and politics, the public prosecutors who investigated Silvio Berlusconi in Milan , and the long-time chairman of the European judges' organization Medel, Edmondo Bruti Liberati. Among other things, the judges' e-mail traffic was monitored. As a result, many European judges who are members of Medel were also monitored. Of the 203 judges monitored, 47 were Italians, the rest come from 12 other European nations.
