Prosecutors have requested a
six-month extension of their probe into past taxes involving
designer Miuccia Prada and her husband Patrizio Bertelli, chief
executive officer of Italian fashion house Prada, the company
said Monday.
The investigation follows complaints from Italy's tax
revenue agency alleging tax avoidance through a subsidiary
company whose registered office is in Amsterdam.
About 470 million euros are involved.
An investigating judge will decide whether to allow the
probe to continue.
Prada SpA said that both Miuccia Prada and Bertelli had
made voluntary disclosures last January to the national tax
agency.
