RAI TV manager Casimiro Lieto was
among those arrested Friday in a probe into rigged sentences at
the Salerno tax court.
Lieto, author of the RAI2 programme La Domenica Ventura (The
Coming Sunday) and a former author of cooking show La Prova Del
Cuoco and talk show La Vita In Diretta (Life Live) is accused of
conspiracy for corruption.
RAI has started the process of terminating his contract.
Court judge Antonio Mauriello had regular contacts with "top"
members of the anti-migrant Euroskeptic League party, sources
said.
