Piazza Navona stalls allocation not OK

(ANSA) - Rome, November 26 - The allocation of children's games and holiday trinket stalls at the famous Christmas and Nativity market in Rome's iconic Piazza Navona shows "clear irregularities" and should be revoked, Italy's anti-corruption authority ANAC said Thursday.
    ANAC sent its findings to Rome commissioner Francesco Paolo Tronca so he can take the appropriate action. It said most of the stalls turned out to have gone to the controversial Tredicine family that has a virtual monopoly over open-air food vans in the Italian capital.
    Rome city council on Tuesday froze the allocation of the stalls pending the results of the anti-corruption probe.
    A member of the family and former city councillor, Giordano Tredicine, was implicated in the Capital Mafia case in which a criminal organisation is accused of muscling in on city contracts.
