Turin police on Monday carried
out an operation against a gang allegedly selling fake tickets
outside the stadium.
Nine people were ordered to report to police and were banned
from living in Turin as part of the operation.
The nine suspects are accused of fraud and counterfeiting
public seals, investigative sources said.
The gang allegedly advertised Champions League match tickets
to Juve fans through free internet ads and then sold them at the
station as well as outside the Allianz Stadium, the sources
said.
When buyers tried to get into the stadium with the tickets,
they discovered they were fake.
Police said they discovered 24 fake tickets that were sold
for a value of some 4,000 euros while 32 more were ready for
sale.
