55. 关于 Ghadde 先生主张的议会豁免权，政府表示，Ghadde 先生从全民投票结果公布之时起就不再是参议员了。然而，政府直到 2017 年 8 月 15 日才发布关于全民投票结果(即解散参议院)的法令。合理的推论是，参议院解散之后，参议员们才成为普通公民，这意味着，在 2017 年 8 月 10 日，Ghadde 先生仍然享有豁免权。此外，政府没有声称该参议员是当场被捕，也没有声称豁免权被取消；因此，在这种情况下对 Ghadde 先生的逮捕违反了他的议会豁免权。
55. Regarding the parliamentary immunity claimed by Mr. Ghadde, the Government stated that Mr. Ghadde ceased being a senator from the moment the results of the referendum were known. Yet, the Government did not issue a decree on the consequences of the referendum, in other words the dissolution of the Senate, until 15 August 2017. It would follow that it was not until the Senate had been dissolved that the senators became ordinary citizens, meaning that, on 10 August 2017, Mr. Ghadde still enjoyed immunity. Furthermore, the Government does not claim that the Senator was arrested in flagrante delicto or that immunity had been revoked; therefore, his arrest under these circumstances was in breach of his parliamentary immunity.
