The Direzione Investigativa Antimafia upon the request of the Public Prosecutor’s Office – District Anti-Mafia Directorate of Bologna executed three pre-trial measures issued by the Office of the G.I.P. of the Court of Bologna against a well-known entrepreneur, previous offender, his longtime “front man,” and a third man residing in Padua. At the same time, searches were also conducted against other suspects.
The operation was launched at dawn today with the involvement of women and men of the State Police, the Carabinieri Corps and dog units of the Guardia di Finanza.The operation stems from an extensive and structured investigation activity developed following an asset-related preventive measures, signed by the Director of the D.I.A, ordered against a well-known entrepreneur from Calabria, burdened with several criminal records and for years residing in the surrounding area of Bologna, which, at the time, allowed the seizure of several properties and significant sums of money.
Today’s investigation unveiled complex mechanisms aimed at concealing assets and companies by the suspect entrepreneur who, through the fictitious registration in the name of a compliant front person, covertly managed restaurant and ice cream parlors, reemploying funds that were likely of an illicit nature, with the manifest purpose of shielding his assets from possible attacks by the state. The Judicial Authority, in addition to the aforementioned pre-trial measures, ordered the seizure of the two companies fictitiously registered in the name of the front person.
