You would then agree that divesting the current Italian equivalent of the juge d'instruction of his constitutional obligations to investigate news of a crime and, conversely, empowering the investigative police with discretionary power to investigate chosen crimes in line with parliamentary guidelines, could lead to an entirely arbitrary if not demagogic state of affairs. (But then that is only one of proposals designed to subjugate Italy's judiciary branch to the Prince, his whims and urges.)
