A Milan court on Wednesday
sentenced Daniela Giaconi to 11 years in jail for "de facto"
managing an alleged "system" based on four NGOs that forged
documents to manage the reception of hundreds of migrants, who
were given very little because the defendant's only interest was
to "make a profit" out of the migrant emergency.
Giaconi was arrested on July 2, 2019.
The court also sentenced nine others to terms of up to eight
years and six months in prison in the same case.
Nearly nine million euros were seized by authorities.
The charges pressed after an investigation led by prosecutor
Gianluca Prisco were criminal association, fraud against the
State, and money laundering. (ANSAmed).
