Some 30 people were placed
under house arrest or issued with orders requiring them to sign
daily with police on Tuesday in connection with a invalidity
fraud probe in the southern city of Naples.
The suspects are accused of receiving invalidity benefit
while also working in city shops.
One of the suspects was found to be selling counterfeit
cigarettes.
Police seized property and assets worth 2.4 million euros
as a preventive measure.
This is the amount investigators believe the suspects
received in unlawful benefit.
