Giovanni Toti is answering over one hundred questions during the interrogation of prosecutors Federico Manotti and Luca Monteverde, with the deputy Vittorio Ranieri Miniati.

The president of the Liguria Region was placed under house arrest on 7 May for corruption and forgery.

The questions concern the funding received not only by Aldo Spinelli and Francesco Moncada, but also by the landfill king Pietro Colucci and other entrepreneurs. Then there are those relating to the alleged exchange vote.

Toti, assisted by the lawyer Stefano Savi, is answering everything. The interrogation could last a long time. It is not excluded that it could also be interrupted this evening and resume tomorrow morning.

Meanwhile, the leader of the Democratic Party, Elly Schlein, asks for the governor's resignation: «What emerges from the investigations in Liguria is extremely serious» after which «the judiciary will take its course on individual criminal responsibilities» but «there is a shadow on the management of the Region which is the reason why we asked for Toti's resignation." These are the statements released during the broadcast “In Onda” on La7.
