(ANSA) - Rome, June 21 - Ex-premier Matteo Renzi, the leader of the centre-left Democratic Party (PD), on Wednesday blasted 'shows' in parliament and in the media over the case of alleged corruption regarding civil-service procurement agency CONSIP.
Sports Minister Luca Lotti and Renzi's father Tiziano are under investigation. A Carabinieri policeman is under investigation too for allegedly wrongly attributing to arrested businessman Alfredo Romeo, and not to centre-right politician Italo Bocchino, a phrase allegedly concerning a meeting with Tiziano Renzi.
"They continue to do shows in parliament and in the newspapers about reported leaks for alleged external participation in influence peddling," Renzi wrote in his Enews newsletter. "But we keep asking - doesn't the possibility that false evidence was constructed against members of the institutions give you goose pimples? "This is the main point. We want the truth".
