Alberto Stasi has been released from prison and granted probation, according to a decision by the Surveillance Court of Milan. The court's ruling, which was supported by a favorable opinion from the general prosecutor's office, allows Stasi to serve the remainder of his sentence under social services supervision.

Stasi had been living under a semi-liberty regime prior to this decision. Sources confirmed the news to ANSA, indicating that the granting of probation is a separate matter from any potential review of his trial proceedings. His defense team intends to file a motion for such a review.

The Surveillance Court's decision marks a significant step in Stasi's legal journey, moving him from incarceration to a supervised probationary period. The specifics of his probation and the ongoing efforts by his defense to seek a trial review remain key aspects of the case.
