Maradona wins against the TAX AUTHORITIES, the lawyer Pisani: “A persecution”

Diego Armando Maradona is finally beginning to find peace after his death: there is the final sentence against the TAX COMPANY.

El Pibe de Oro has been prosecuted for years by Italian law for evading millions of lire and for breaking the economic rules of the Italian state. Over the years, the Argentine champion who wrote the history of Naples and became the eternal symbol of the city of Naples has been accused of owing the Italian state very high sums that, instead, have never been returned.

Maradona wins the case against the TAX AUTHORITY: the lawyer speaks

“He was persecuted for years, everything was seized from him, from his earrings to his television performance fees.“, commented the lawyer Angelo Pisani, as reported by Il Mattino. The sentence has arrived and has officially “exonerated” Diego Armando Maradona from any accusation that titled him as a serial tax evader.

Maradona didn’t owe the taxman 40 million but 951.82 eurosas established by the Tax Court. Last June 245, the sentence of the Second Instance Tax Court of Campania was filed, establishing the amount that Maradona owed to the Italian State, putting an end to the affair that began with the investigations in the early 90s.

“That tax assessment from the 80s against Napoli and Maradona was null and void and had already been pardoned by the bankruptcy of Calcio Napoli, so nothing could be attributed to Maradona.“, commented the lawyer Pisani to the microphones of the RAI. “Diego – concludes the lawyer – he was used and exploited as a scapegoat in the fight against tax evasion just because his name was Diego Armando Maradona”.
