BARI – There were assets worth 3 million euros seized this morning, from the Carabinieri of Bari, to Vincenzo Zagami per crimes against property, public administration, the administration of justice and public faith who for years would have illegally exercised the profession of lawyer.
The confiscated assets
He has already been definitively convicted for some of the disputed facts. The confiscated assets consist of two apartments on the French Riviera (in Roquebrune Cap Martin), an apartment in a luxury residence in Alessandria, large-engined cars such as a Ferrari GT, a Lamborghini Murcielago, a Porsche Cayenne, an Audi A8 and a Range Rover Sport, as well as a Harley Davidson motorcycle. The seizure decree was issued by the prevention measures section of the Court of Bari at the request of the Trani Prosecutor’s Office.

The investigations made it possible to reconstruct Zagami’s career, which began in the 1990s, and the income of the entire family unit, «providing a substantial circumstantial framework – we read in a statement from the Carabinieri – regarding the illicit origin of his wealth, accumulated over the last 30 years and which would constitute the compendium of numerous crimes”. These also include forgery, continued fraud and embezzlement.
