July 17, 2021 Massimo Bochicchio, the broker accused of defrauding several VIPs, arrested on July 7 in Jakarta, Indonesia, was deported to Italy.



The broker arrived just before 1pm at Fiumicino airport with a scheduled flight coming from Doha.



As soon as he disembarked at the Roman airport, he was accompanied by the Fiumicino judicial agents to the police offices for the notification of the custody order under house arrest. 



The investigating judge of Rome, according to what was communicated by the lawyer, had revoked the measure of the prison and converted it into house arrest, acknowledging in the provision the "seriousness and validity" of the restitution proposal "of the sums to investors" who claim them ".



In recent days, the investigation for international money laundering against the broker, which reportedly collected over 500 million euros from 2011 onwards, was transmitted by the Milanese prosecutors to the Roman ones.



Bochicchio had been blocked at the Jakarta airport on an international arrest warrant, based on the custody order in prison signed by the Milan investigating judge Chiara Valori, at the request of prosecutors Giovanni Polizzi and Paolo Filippini. The Milanese Public Prosecutor's Office, however, one day before the arrest had sent the money laundering file to Rome, where the investigation was already open on the alleged scams to VIPs and entrepreneurs made with the promise of large gains on high-risk investments.
