Giulio Occhionero, the nuclear engineer arrested with her sister on the charge of having taken away with cyber attacks on data and information of thousands of people, has denied investigators with the password access to the server in Minnesota (Usa) used, according to the investigators of Rome, to allocate part of the data provided. Against the former presidents of the Council Matteo Renzi and Mario Monti, as well as the president of the Ecb, Mario Draghi there was only an attempt, but not the access to the mail boxes.

The access to the server the us is now the subject of a request by the public prosecutor of Rome. If in the Usa there is still a possibility of access to the server due to Occhionero, more complicated than it appears is the recovery of deleted data from the computers of the nuclear engineer and of the sister in Italy once the two brothers had had the feeling of being in the crosshairs of the police.

Between the machines infected instead, there would be two pc in use to the collaborators of the cardinal Gianfranco Ravasi, and so in the Vatican, the investigation authorities are "making enquiries".
