Definitive confiscation of assets with a total value estimated at over 7 million euros, attributable to an entrepreneur from Rosarno accused of fictitious registration of assets. The provincial commands of the Guardia di Finanza and the Carabinieri of Reggio Calabria carried out the provision, issued by the Prevention Measures Section of the local Court of Appeal.
The operation originates from the asset assessments carried out on behalf of the local District Anti-Mafia Directorate of the Public Prosecutor’s Office of Reggio Calabria and constitutes the definition, from an economic-financial point of view, of the investigative and procedural results acquired during the operations called “handover-pecunia olet” (conducted by the Gico of the Economic and Financial Police Unit) and “faust” (carried out by the Investigation Unit of the Department Carabinieri operative of Reggio Calabria).
In particular, during the first of these operations, the figure of the aforementioned entrepreneur emerged who, in order to evade the rules that allow the seizure and confiscation of assets in relation to prevention measures, had fictitiously attributed the formal ownership of companies and real estate units to three frontmen.
