Cc and Gdf operation between Reggio Emilia, Parma and Crotone
(ANSA) – REGGIO EMILIA, NOV 17 – They issued false invoices thanks to shell companies between Reggio Emilia, Parma and Crotone.
The illicit tour was discovered by the carabinieri and financial guard of the local provincial commands who delivered the notices of guarantee to six people who ended up in the register of suspects of the Reggio Prosecutor’s Office.
The maxi-operation started at dawn with 80 soldiers from the economic-financial police unit of the Fiamme Gialle and the operative unit of the Arma investigative unit who carried out numerous searches in six private residences – belonging to the de facto administrators and those considered ‘figurehead’ by the investigators of the so-called ‘paper mills’ mainly of Calabrian origins – but also in ten registered offices and local units of companies mostly operating in the construction and car rental sectors, as well as three professional studios in Reggio.
A large amount of IT material was seized which will be analyzed by technical consultants appointed by the magistrate, but also accounting and non-accounting documentation deemed useful for investigations. Moreover, thanks to the help of two so-called “cashdog” dog units of the Guardia di Finanza, cash was found which according to the investigators is the proceeds of the illegal activity. The deputy prosecutor of the investigation – originally created for crimes against the person – hypothesizes, among the various crimes, tax fraud through the use of invoices for non-existent transactions.
