The financiers of the Provincial Command of Avellino have executed the application order of personal and real precautionary measures ordered by the investigating judge of the Court of Avellino, against five people, of which two are in prison and three are under house arrest.

Today’s measures – also carried out with the support of the financiers belonging to the Group of Stopped and to the companies of Castellamare di Stabia e di Cava dei Tirreni – are the epilogue of complex and detailed investigations carried out by the soldiers of the Guardia di Finanza of the Tenenza Solofrawithin which an organizational structure has been identified, based in the tanning center of Solofra and various branches in the provinces of Avellino, Salerno, Napoli It’s stopped.
In particular, the investigation activities, coordinated by this Public Prosecutor’s Office, made it possible to acquire significant elements which led to the belief that the two subjects drawn from the precautionary measure in prison, through complacent “front men” and “paper mill” companies, had placed be a complex system of tax fraud, for over 45 millionthrough a vast round of false invoices, then transferring part of the illicit sums of money, for approximately 1.7 million euros, through numerous bank transactions, to non-EU countries, and in particular to the People’s Republic of China.
The complex investigations – also carried out through consultation of the databases in use by the Financial Police, the analysis of financial flows and electronic communications, inspections and examination of documents of numerous subjects – made it possible to ascertain that the suspects carried out multiple capital transfers between companies involved in the fraudulent system, at the same time carrying out several changes of director and sales of company shares, in order to distance suspicions from their person and conceal the capital used.
