Escorts from Puglia to the North in exchange for contracts to dispose of missiles and phosphorus bombs

Escorts luxury (coming from various cities in the Puglia), bottles of champagne, hotel stays and expensive dinners as well as fuel vouchers and football match tickets in exchange for exclusive waste disposal contracts. Corruption and exploitation of prostitution are the crimes contested in the “Leonida” operation conducted by the financial police and coordinated by the Reggio Emilia prosecutor’s office which led to the execution of 5 precautionary measures (of which one under house arrest and four disqualifications) and 14 warnings in searches have been underway since dawn this morning, as well as in the Reggio Emilia area, in the provinces of Parma, Verona, Brescia, Lucca, Livorno, Sassari, Rome and Siena. The connection with Puglia is in a tour of luxury escorts, who would have arrived in the North from Puglia.

The sole shareholder and president of the Board of Directors of Greenlife srl and Ecologia Soluzione Ambiente Spa with headquarters in Bibbiano, in the Reggio Emilia area, ended up under house arrest. Among those under investigation are also two Army officers and a civil engineer, all three employed in the military ammunition restoration and recovery plant in Noceto (Parma) and accused of having received gifts to favor the company in direct assignments of disposal works of special waste (including demilitarization activities of missiles and white phosphorus bombs) for a total amount of 650,000 euros between April 2023 and last January.

The public contracts entrusted directly and presumably illegally to the Reggio Emilia company were identified in the context of the services requested by some municipal companies operating in Tuscany, Veneto and Lombardy and 10 people are under investigation for these conducts (of which, 5 private entities connected to a company from Reggio Emilia and 5 public officials included in the three publicly held companies involved in the investigations).
