Finance police searched the
Arezzo headquarters of Banca Etruria early on Wednesday to seize
documents, ANSA sources said.
The seizure was ordered by Civitavecchia prosecutors who
are probing the suicide of former Banca Etruria bondholder Luigi
D'Angelo, who killed himself after losing over 100,000 euros.
The probe is into suspected fraud and instigation to
suicide.
Several former Etruria managers including the father of
Reform Minister Maria Elena Boschi are also being probed for
suspected mismanagement in the bank's bankruptcy.
Banca Etruria is one of four failed banks that were
rescued by the government last year leaving investors holding
worthless bonds.
The others are Banca Marche, Cassa di Risparmio di Chieti
(CariChieti) and Cassa di Risparmio di Ferrara (CariFe).
The government has unveiled a compensation package but
some former bondholders are unhappy with it.
