Carabinieri police on Wednesday
searched an office at the Naples courthouse to gather evidence
for a probe into contracts for companies belonging to Campania
businessman Alfredo Romeo.
One of Romeo's companies has the cleaning-and-maintenance
contract for the courthouse.
The office searched was that of Emanuele Caldarera, the
courthouse's cleaning-and-maintenance head, who is also under
investigation, sources said.
Investigations suspect that Caldarera requested that his
daughter be hired at one of Romeo's companies to release
payments for a Romeo Gestioni that had been frozen by a
predecessor.
Romeo was arrested at the start of this month in a probe into
alleged corruption linked to civil service procurement agency
CONSIP.
Ex-premier Matteo Renzi's father Tiziano and Sports Minister
Luca Lotti are also under investigation in the probe.
