An anonymous female lawyer from Torre Annunziata collected 19 mila 500 euros annually between 2008 and 2012 for a debt-collection role deemed useless by a special municipal commission in Alessandria, Lo Strillone TV reported.
- The municipal commission forwarded its findings regarding the circa 100mila-total payout to the local Public Prosecutor’s Office.
- The lawyer’s primary connection to the Piedmont region was her father’s role in a municipal in-house company.
- The city of Alessandria has been in financial default since 2012 while managing ongoing waste disposal controversies through its subsidiary ARAL s.p.a.
Investigators in Piedmont focused heavily on ARAL s.p.a., the municipal company that managed waste disposal in Alessandria from 2007 to 2012. According to a special control commission report forwarded to prosecutors, the in-house company advanced a landfill project in violation of the law, creating an economic damage to the municipality valued at 572mila euros.
The commission’s president, councilman Domenico Di Filippo, detailed these findings in official oversight documents. Lo Strillone TV reported that the same commission discovered on July 7 that ARAL s.p.a. awarded suspicious major consultancies over a five-year period, showing a stark disparity between incurred costs and actual service benefits.
The financial scrutiny extends directly to the legal assignment granted by the municipal subsidiary to the lawyer from Torre Annunziata. Investigators flagged the debt-recovery contract as suspicious due to the lack of operational nexus to Piedmont outside of familial ties.
The recipient’s father held a top position within another in-house entity owned by the Comune di Alessandria. Despite the municipality enduring official financial default since 2012, administrative spending drew additional criticism when Mayor Rita Rossa recently increased salaries for nine senior directors above 100,000 euros.
