(ANSA) - Caserta - An Italian man claiming benefit for blindness has been caught driving a car and arrested.
The unnamed man, 67, had claimed some 60,000 euros in benefit since 2003, tax police said.
The man was stopped at a spot check near Naples and countersigned a fine for not having his license on him, without realising he was on a police database of people suspected of invalidity fraud.
