April 28, 2020 The former President of the Chamber, Irene Pivetti, is investigated by the Prosecutor of Syracuse, as CEO of Only logistics Italia srl, as part of an investigation into the import and distribution of masks from China. The alleged crimes are commercial fraud and placing on the market of products that do not comply with the essential safety requirements. The finance guard of Syracuse seized 9 thousand masks in several Italian cities.

"His company imported masks from China," Syracuse Prosecutor Sabrina Gambino, who coordinated the 'Bad Mask' investigation of the Syracuse Finance Guard, was able to lift the veil on a traffic of FFP2 protections, told AGI. between Italy, Sicily and China. The searches were taken in the provinces of Milan, Rome, Bologna, Ravenna, Forlì, Syracuse, Caltanissetta, Catania and Ragusa.     

The investigations were born after a report from the Yellow Flames of Bologna which, after having discovered irregular protections, traced back to a Lentini distribution company. This, in turn, would have turned to a company that imported the goods from China but according to the reconstruction of Finance the certificate of suitability would have been altered.

Pivetti: my company is serious, we have all the cards in place.
"It is an indecency, they are cannonading a serious company like mine, which is making huge sacrifices to provide very controlled masks." So Irene Pivetti, joined by AdnKronos, comments on the investigation against her underway for fraud for the import of the masks from China. "All the talk in the newspapers is based on nothing," he adds. "The truth is that with great effort and spirit of collaboration we are trying to import a serious product, the rules are confusing," stresses the former president of the Chamber. "Someone got tired of making cakes and they invented a story that exists - he adds - I am very sorry for the sacrifices that many are making, including myself. Someone was pleased to invent a kind of monster, a Grimilde from the Snow White fairy tale ", but" the truth will come out ", assures Pivetti, who concludes:" Well the investigation that brings the truth back to the center: to the magistrate we will explain how things are, we have all the papers in place ".
