TV journalist Federica Sciarelli is
under investigation for leaking confidential investigative
material along with prosecutor Henry John Woodcock in a probe
into civil-service procurement agency CONSIP, judicial sources
said Tuesday. Prosecutors have confiscated the cellphone of
Sciarelli, popular host of hit missing persons show Chi l'ha
visto? Possible charges against Sciarelli, a long-time friend of
Woodcock's, include aiding and abetting a leak of judicial
secrets. Prosecutors say Sciarelli was the go-between Woodcock
used to leak information to a journalist on daily newspaper Il
Fatto Quotidiano. Sciarelli told ANSA: "I can't have revealed
anything to anyone, simply because Woodcock doesn't tell me
anything about his investigations, still less what is covered by
confidentiality rules".
