This Monday, the Marseille Criminal Court sentenced Charles Dalmasso, socialist municipal councilor to the former mayor of Allauch, Roland Povinelli, to four years in prison, including two years suspended.

Sentenced for complicity in corruption and obstruction of the voting operations by fraudulent maneuvers, even if these did not succeed, the 61-year-old man will be able to serve part of his sentence at home under electronic surveillance.

He was also deprived of his civil and civic rights for five years, including the right to vote and eligibility.

A withdrawal against a job at the town hall and housing

The facts date back to February 2014, when Charles Dalmasso held the position of security assistant to Roland Povinelli, socialist mayor of Allauch from 1975 until his death in May 2020, between the two rounds of municipal elections.

The investigation was only opened in 2019, after the publication in the daily La Marseillaise of recordings establishing that Roland Povinelli and Charles Dalmasso had proposed to a young activist to appear on the FN list (now RN) to withdraw at the last moment, with a few other running mates, in order to prevent the list from being filed in the prefecture.

In exchange, the young man was offered a job at the town hall and accommodation.
