25 September 2020 There is "the widespread involvement of Fontana in relation to the affair relating to masks and gowns accompanied by the equally evident desire to avoid leaving traces of his involvement through written messages". This can be read in the request for the delivery of mobile phones to the main protagonists of the 'Camici case', signed by the Milan Public Prosecutor's Office, and in which a text of April 16 is also reported in which Andrea Dini, brother-in-law of the governor and administrator of Dama spa, informs his sister Roberta Dini, wife of the Lombard president, in this way: "Order of gowns arrived. I preferred not to write it to Atti". She replies: "Right so well". According to prosecutor there would be "full awareness" of Andrea and Roberta Dini "of the" situation of conflict of interest "in the case of the supply of gowns. The two brothers, in particular, would have arranged" instrumental donations of masks "to" pre-establish a test to be used to reply to the presumed controversies "on the conflict of interest on the" order of smocks ". In a message between Andrea Dini and a manager of Dama the first writes:" We have to donate many more masks (...) if they break us for the supplies of coats due to brother-in-law we respond like this ". The Milanese investigations follow the operation of the Gdf of Pavia which yesterday acquired memories of other telephones, including that of Fontana, for the Diasorin-San Matteo case. A blitz judged" too much invasive "by Fontana himself who reiterated the" legitimacy "of his work and explained that in his phone there is nothing to be" worried ". His lawyer, Jacopo Pensa contested the operation nor because all the content has been copied, even that confidential or linked to institutional or personal relationships, in an investigation in which it is not investigated. "It was a very invasive and spectacular procedure, at 7 in the morning people usually stop," the lawyer said. Yesterday's acquisition, which today was followed by that for the 'smocks' case, limited, however, only to the forensic copying of 'targeted' content and which did not concern Fontana but his wife, was ordered by the assistant prosecutor of Pavia Mario Venditti (he too will probably do a skimming) after, in the investigation into the agreement between the pharmaceutical multinational and San Matteo for the development of serological tests for Covid diagnosis, the president of the Pavia scientific institute Alessandro Venturi, according to the prosecutors , in the first days of July (before a blitz by the Gdf) "proceeded to the massive cancellation of all WhatsApp chats from the mobile phone". The hypothesis is that he wanted to "conceal extremely relevant and in all probability compromising information" for himself and "for other subjects, directly or indirectly involved in the affair on which he is trying to shed light".



The Milan prosecutor's office moved yesterday. The special currency police unit of the GDF took the cell phones to make the forensic copy, based on a series of keywords, sms and whatsapp of those who had a role in the affair of the regional supply, which was then transformed into a donation and therefore interrupted, of gowns and personal protective equipment of half a million euros by Dama spa.




DiaSorin clarifies "that it has never had relations with political parties or party representatives aimed at obtaining undue competitive advantages or of any other kind". The biotechnology company based in Saluggia (Vercelli) made it known today in a note in relation to the news reported by the press regarding the investigation of the Pavia Public Prosecutor's Office aimed at verifying the telephone communications of the president of the Lombardy Region Attilio Fontana and other politicians. The file was opened for embezzlement and troubled choice of the free contractor for the direct assignment of 500 thousand serological tests to the company for the diagnosis of Covid 19. The tests were used for an experiment carried out later in the laboratories of the Policlinico San Matteo in Pavia. DiaSorin emphasizes "that it has always operated in the most absolute transparency and legality, and thus also with regard to the relationship with the San Matteo Foundation", finally specifying "to reserve every most appropriate judicial action to protect the reputation and good name of DiaSorin , trusting that the investigative investigations in progress will confirm the extraneousness of the Company and its top management with respect to any hypothesis of improper behavior ".
