BRUSSELS, 12 JAN – The council chamber of the Brussels court has decided to postpone to 26 January the decision on the pre-trial detention of Francesco Giorgi, companion of the former vice-president of the European Parliament Eva Kaili and right-hand man of former MEP Antonio Panzeri, all in prison under the Qatargate. This was reported by the Belgian federal prosecutor after the hearing scheduled for this morning. Giorgi, arrested last December 9, has been in the Brussels prison of Saint-Gilles for a month and in recent weeks he has acknowledged having been part of an organization used by Qatar and Morocco to influence European affairs.
