Dossieraggio, “further unauthorized accesses have emerged”. The Perugia Prosecutor’s Office does not stop –

The investigation into the alleged dossier continues and “it is not foreseeable that it will be concluded in the short term” because, from the investigations, “further episodes of possible abusive access have emerged” to the suspicious transaction reporting system. This was made known by the Public Prosecutor’s Office of Perugia. In this period, continues the chief prosecutor Raffaele Cantone, “the collaborative relationship with the National Anti-Mafia Directorate has further intensified, which, in addition to carrying out dutiful coordination functions, has carried out further in-depth investigations on its database, providing important feedback to the ongoing investigations”.

Cantone confirms that «last May the office requested a personal precautionary measure of house arrest against the Guardia di Finanza officer (Pasquale Striano, ed.) and the former deputy prosecutor of the National Anti-Mafia Directorate (Antonio Laudati, ed.), who had already been investigated and had received an invitation to appear in recent months». In the precautionary request, «200 pages long», «all the elements collected that demonstrated the existence of serious evidence of guilt, episode by episode, were brought to the attention of the investigating judge, and specific circumstances were highlighted, attributable to both suspects» which were considered «to constitute serious facts of evidentiary contamination capable of damaging the authenticity of the considerable body of evidence already acquired».

For the Guardia di Finanza officer, the risk of repetition of the crimes was raised “even if in a subordinate way”, given that the suspect serves in a non-operational department and without the possibility of accessing the databases. The investigating judge of Perugia rejected the request, however, considering, underlines Cantone, citing the order, “the existence of multiple, serious and precise evidence in relation to all the precautionary cases is indisputable”. Against the order, the Public Prosecutor’s Office of Perugia has filed an appeal against this decision, reiterating that to date no Discovery of the documents has taken place. Since the secrecy of evidence has ceased today, underlines Cantone, “they may be transmitted to the Anti-Mafia Commission” in the coming days.
