Ten young people have been
put under investigation for allegedly hacking the computer
system of a school in the Tuscan city of Grosseto to erase their
absences from the electronic class register, Il Tirreno reported
on Friday.
The school noticed the alleged hacking, which allegedly
featured the use of a trojan horse to obtain teachers'
passwords, in March 2019 and notified the postal police.
As a result a prosecutor at a court for minors has notified
the suspects that an investigation involving them has been
completed - a step that usually comes before a request for an
indictment.
The 10, who were all minors at the time of the alleged
wrongdoing, risk prison terms of between one and four years.
