(ANSA) - Rome, April 7 - Former industry minister Federica Guidi told ANSA on Thursday that she was the "injured party" after speaking to Potenza prosecutors about an oil-sector probe in relation to which she resigned last week. "I answered all their questions," Guidi told ANSA. "I learned that I am an injured party from a legal point of view". Guidi resigned last Thursday over a wiretapped conversation with her oil-industry boyfriend, Gianluca Gemelli, about a government amendment to the Tempa Rossa project benefitting him in Basilicata.
