The deputy prosecutor-general of
the supreme Court of Cassation, Roberto Aniello, on Thursday
said the court should reject an appeal from Rome city council
former personnel chief Raffaele Marra, held in a corruption
probe, to be released from detention in Rome's Regina Coeli
prison. Marra is accused of receiving 370,00 euros from real
estate broker Sergio Scarpellini in 2013 to buy a house in
Rome's Prati Fiscali area. Scarpellini is also under
investigation. The supreme court is expected to decide on
Marra's detention today or tomorrow. Marra is the former
right-hand man of Rome Mayor Virginia Raggi.
