On Monday 15 April, the former mayor of Turin, Piero Fassino (Democratic Party) in the shopping area of the airport Leonardo da Vinci from Fiumicino was waiting for the plane to Strasbourg.
After passing the required checks, on the way to the gate you stop at the duty free, the shopping area where you can purchase various types of products.
The scent
He takes a perfume worth 100 euros and, as it were, reports “Daily fact” his phone rings:
“Having the trolley in one hand and the mobile phone in the other, not having three hands yet, I simply placed the perfume package in the pocket of my jacket, waiting to go to the checkout. I am amazed by an episode that I thought I had already clarified with those responsible. A security officer approached me and questioned my act and reported it to a police officer. I certainly didn’t intend to misappropriate a small bottle of perfume.”
The sound of the anti-shoplifting device and the report
The sound of the anti-shoplifting alarm and the version provided by the former mayor did not convince the store managers who, given the footage from the video surveillance cameras, they decided to file a complaint.
The Aelia Lagardère company, which manages duty free and every week reports dozens of attempted thefts in the perfumery and tobacco sector, did not want to make a statement on the matter.
