Nine suspects plea-bargained and
one was indicted at the end of the preliminary hearings stage of
a probe into false signatures to back lists supporting Sergio
Chiamparino for his election as Piedmont governor in 2014,
judicial sources said Wednesday. Local official Rocco Florio
will go on trial on September 15. The preliminary hearings judge
found that the signatures involved were false. A regional court
recently rejected an appeal from the rightwing Northern League
against Chiamparino's election.
