The accusation against Gravina
The accusation referred to events which occurred in the context of his activity as president of the Lega pro, as he contests “an embezzlement to the detriment of the Lega pro through the signing of a consultancy contract with the English company Isg at values far higher than the actual one”, and then “carried out, with the collaboration of Bogarelli Marco, later deceased, a series of operations aimed at regaining possession of the sum of approximately 200,000.00 euros, in order to conceal its illicit origin”. Reconstruction rejected by Gravina’s defense which instead points the finger at how the investigation arose from the illicit activity of financing spy Striano following a report from a former collaborator of Gravina, now close to his “rival” Lotito.
