19 September 2019The Public Prosecutor's Office of Rome concluded the investigation concerning the restoration project of the historian'' Palazzo Raggi '' in via del Corso and of the '' Torri di Ligini '' real estate complex at the Eur, formerly the headquarters of the Finance Department, notifying the conclusion of the investigation for corruption hypothesis against twelve subjects abuse of office and trafficking of illicit influences.
As the finance guard tells in a note, the judicial police investigations, initiated in 2015 by the military of the Special Anti-Corruption Unit, "focused on alleged undue agreements between politicians, managers and officials of the Municipality of Rome and entrepreneurs" to obtain a positive outcome in the definition of building practices, "thus arriving at shared solutions through an administrative procedure more suitable for obtaining a favorable result, in the face of money or other benefits, such as facilitations in the purchase of apartments, the demolition of mortgages, the payment of notary fees and / or even the obtainment of special professional duties ".
During the investigations, the finance guard tells us, "irregularities also emerged with reference to two other different building practices". "The first - the investigators continue - is relevant to a prestigious building in Largo Santa Susanna, already home to the Institute of Geophysics and Volcanology, in order to which the pro-tempore Councilor for Urban Redevelopment and the Head of the Pau Department pro tempore of the Municipality of Rome would have exerted undue pressure on municipal employees to favor the change of intended use of the building (from the construction of an important center of urban cultural / commercial level with services and exhibition spaces to the construction of offices) ".
"In the second one, instead, they would have favored a specific consortium of builders to allow the construction of the Perfect Cave area, denying the existence of specific hydro-geological constraints on the Tre Fontane ditch", the finance guard concludes.
