Former Telecom Italia chief and
engineering magnate Vito Gamberale was cleared Friday of charges
of complicity in an alleged rigging of the auction of a 29.75%
share in the Milan airports authority SEA.
Prosecutors alleged Gamberale and his partner Mauro Maia
struck an illicit deal with Indian entrepreneur Behari Vinod
Sahai to present his bid to purchase the SEA stake too late.
The Indian bid was disallowed, leaving the way open to
Gamberale's F2i Italian Funds for Infrastructures company,
prosecutors alleged.
