The Tempio Prosecutor's Office coordinated a vast operation by the Fiamme Gialle in Gallura with the seizure of assets (properties and bank accounts) and charges of tax crimes and money laundering. The names of about ten people from Tempio, Calangianus, Olbia and Arzachena end up in the register of suspects of the Tempio Prosecutor's Office.
The investigations, by deputy prosecutor Andrea Schirra, were conducted on operations that continued in the two-year period 2022-2023. According to what was found by the financiers (Economic Financial Police Unit of the Provincial Command of Sassari) some "paper companies" issued invoices for non-existent operations favoring a company that exported cork to Portugal.
There is talk of over three million euros in taxes evaded with the reduction of the taxable income of the company benefiting from the false invoices. The financiers, coordinated by Major Paolo Masciocchi and Colonel Stefano Rebichesu, would also have identified among the frontmen an 80-year-old pensioner who appears in the investigations with a marginal role . No comment from the defenders of the people under investigation, Giuseppe Corda and Angelo Merlini.
