Milan prosecutors on Wednesday
requested prison time for a chief anesthesiologist who skipped
145 days of work in 2013.
The prosecution says Giorgio Barzoi was paid over 30,000
euros for work he never did. The chief anesthesiologist at
Milan's Fatebenefratelli hospital would stamp his time card and
then leave for the day.
His collegue and co-defendant Roberta Truveri faces a
possible sentence of six months behind bars for allegedly
covering up his truancy.
The pair face charges of defrauding the hospital.
Barzoi told the court a doctor's worth cannot be judged
based on how many times he stamps his time card.
