Several Italian dailies on Friday
reported that Cabinet Secretary Giancarlo Giorgetti had a
"secret" dinner in March with people arrested this week over
alleged corruption related to AS Roma's project to build a new
stadium in the capital.
The dinner with Luca Lanzalone, who resigned as chief of
energy and water utility ACEA on Thursday, and construction
businessman Luca Parnasi, reportedly took place on March 12,
shortly after Italy's general election and before League member
Giorgetti got his government post.
The news about the dinner, which is said to have taken place
at Parnasi's house, was reportedly based on transcriptions of
wiretaps in attachments to the investigation documents.
Some dailies also reported that Giovanni Malagò, the head of
Italian Olympic Committee CONI, is under investigation in
relation to the case.
The people arrested over the alleged corruption are set to he
questioned on Friday.
