According to the bureaucracy, he would be blind, so much so that he would need assistance. In reality, however, he would only be partially sighted and as such would not have been entitled to the economic benefits he had received over the last twenty years.
To prove all this, specific videos made by the Guardia di Finanza have been produced. And it is precisely the Guardia di Finanza Torre Annunziata group that has executed a preventive seizure order for an equivalent amount of almost 125 thousand euros , issued by the investigating judge of the Torre Annunziata court at the request of the Prosecutor's Office against a couple from Castellammare di Stabia, husband and wife.
The spouses are being investigated, in conjunction with each other, for aggravated fraud in order to obtain public funds .
According to the investigations of the financial police of the Guardia di Finanza company of Castellammare di Stabia, it would have emerged that the man had received for almost twenty years and without having the requirements, as he was visually impaired and not totally blind, the pension for absolute blindness and the accompanying allowance. All thanks to the complicity of his wife. In particular, it was ascertained, the man led a normal life.
The videos of the Guardia di Finanza show how the man was actually able to walk normally and even cross the street without the need for an escort, despite the heavy traffic, as well as carry shopping bags and insert the keys into the door lock without any problems. In some images, he is also seen, following a check for the issuing of a receipt by the Finance Police, signing the report without any difficulty.
Not only that: the invalidity pension unduly received was allegedly used to pay for years the mortgage taken out by the wife to purchase the house owned by the woman , the residence where the couple still reside.
