ROME – It is not the man you love metaphors, Antonio Azzollini. His sanguine temperament know him in many, in the Senate, where the former Forza Italia, Ncd the past, has had a stool in the Budget Committee since 1997 and is its president since 2008.
easy to imagine how Azzollini has welcomed the request for house arrest yesterday that the investigating judge of Trani has submitted to the Senate considering leading a “power group” that would have “plundered” the coffers of the Congregation of the Sisters of Divine Providence, causing a “hole” of 500 million euro, as well 350 of which made against the State. Investigators the dispute the conspiracy, the fraudulent bankruptcy and corruption by induction. Heavy charges, the former mayor of Molfetta shares, for various reasons, with other nine arrested, including two sisters of the Congregation. Because the House of Divine Providence began as health care facility for the mentally ill, with offices in Bisceglie, Foggia and Potenza. But over the years would become a “treasure chest” for clienterali recruitment, salaries and consultants gold.
The TONI CAPE
The impetuous temperament Azzollini emerges from the 557 pages of order yesterday to the Board for the approval of the Senate. “Now I’m in charge. If not, I piss in your mouth. ” Uttering these words, the President of the Commission budget burst into the headquarters of Nursing, in Bisceglie, in July 2009, leaving basite nuns gathered. The episode tells the prosecutor of Trani Attilio Lo Gatto, an employee of one of the companies working with the Congregation and that day was present. How reacted the religious? “When I came out were a little ‘sorry, embittered, (…) by the time they started to operate and was Azzollini Belsito (his confidant, ed) every day.” It was then – writes the investigating judge in the order – which Senator would become “indisputable and undisputed leader of the conspiracy that rages on the House of Divine Providence for at least five years.” The sisters “obey” and that’s why the two of them, Sister Marcella and Sister Daniela, to this end under house arrest. In 2009 Azzollini establishes supervision three ‘loyalists’: first to Angelo Belsito and Rocco Di Terlizzi, then, from July 2013 to Joseph Domenico De Bari. “The power group – writes Gip – imposed actions concerning major acts of the congregation. The institution therefore becomes a bargaining chip to obtain favors of various kinds and a fertile humus for illicit interests at all levels of society, from the world of health to that of business, from the political to the religious world. “
THE LOOTING
The intercepts of Azzollini are not the acts of the order and probably the investigators will ask the Government to use them, as happened in the past to the investigation on the port of Molfetta in which the senator was investigated. In that case the court rejected the authorization, thanks to the votes of the Democratic Party. Accusing Azzollini are tapping other defendants and some witnesses. “They made assumptions wild … from 2007 to 2010-11 have hired about 260 people … did not limit themselves to a number, we say so, that could be acceptable,” will put on record a witness. But not only. Azzollini and others choose suppliers, fulfilled “purges to please the politicians,” dictate strategies and give orders, manage relationships with banks. In the list of workers employed end up friends, lovers and children.
Among those under investigation for fraudulent bankruptcy also appears the deputy Foggia Raffaele Di Gioia (Psi-Mixed Group) for an episode of cash payments by the institution to his daughter Silvia (also investigated), employee output as they were preparing redundancy plans for a thousand people.
Strong of its role in Azzollini Budget Committee over the years would allow the extension of the suspension of tax and social security in favor of the Congregation. And more recently – she writes the investigating judge – would “orchestrated” maneuvers to assist the special commissioner appointed by Mise other two subjects’ to his liking. ”
