An old trouble with justice comes back to the surface and costs Gabriele Policarpo, a former competitor of Masterchef 11, a sentence of five months in prison, paying a fine of 800 euros with conditional suspension of the sentence.

“Polone”, this is the nickname given to him during the program, was tried in Latina: five years ago the 34-year-old from Anzio, passionate about airsoft, was stopped by the carabinieri while he was in possession of a pistol without a red cap. He was on his way home after spending a team sports challenge - based on simulated war scenes - with some friends.

A Masterchef had not reached the final stage as he was previously eliminated but viewers had expressed many certificates of esteem towards him. "Polone", who presented himself as big and thick, actually revealed a very sensitive soul.
