There Financial Police of Cagliari A preventive seizure order was issued on assets worth approximately €35,000 against a support administrator, a former councilor for social services in a municipality in Sulcis Iglesiente. The man is being investigated for embezzlement : he allegedly embezzled that sum from the assets of a man in his nineties entrusted to his care.

The investigation, coordinated by the Cagliari Public Prosecutor's Office, was prompted by a complaint filed by the elderly man's son . Between 2020 and 2023, the man had discovered significant deficits in the bank account held by his father, who was permanently hospitalized in a nursing home. These expenses were completely incompatible with the needs of the patient.

The bank investigations conducted by the Guardia di Finanza (Fiamme Gialle) revealed over 40 POS payments for construction materials, fuel, baby items, opticians, auto parts, tire dealers, and ice cream shops, as well as over 80 cash withdrawals.

According to the prosecution's allegations, the support administrator—by virtue of the public office he received to manage the elderly man's assets—used those funds for personal purposes, systematically failing to comply with legal reporting requirements. This behavior continued for months even after the formal termination of his position.

Movable and immovable property, as well as financial assets equivalent to the entire stolen sum, were therefore seized in execution of the precautionary measure issued by the local Public Prosecutor's Office.
