The former president of the
national social security-pensions fund for certified public
accountants and business consultants was arrested Tuesday on
corruption charges.
Prosecutors claim Paolo Saltarelli took a kickback of just
under one million euros in relation to a 660,000 euro payment
made by the social security fund to the company Adenium for
investment.
Adenium is linked to the company Sopaf controlled by a
family of top Italian financiers who were detained in May this
year on suspicion of conspiracy to commit fraudulent bankruptcy,
fraud, embezzlement and tax fraud before subsequently being
acquitted.
