«In particular - explains a note from the GdF -, the soldiers of the Economic-Financial Police Unit carried out the measure of house arrest against the President of the Judging Commission, former medical director, and the administrator of a company in Cagliari . The latter - add the investigators - together with another entrepreneur, both directors of the two companies that won almost all of the tender lots , were banned from contracting with the public administration. At the same time, the measure of suspension of professional practice was implemented against the doctor in charge of the structure concerned and a clinical engineer who participated in the public tender procedure".
