Overview

• Guardia di Finanza officers from Brescia searched Mazza’s Milan home and office on orders from prosecutor Francesco Prete and pm Claudia Moregola.
• The search sought documents and files on spending for restaurants, horse racing and luxury cars.
• Prosecutors describe this as a new branch of the 'Clean' investigation into a presumed network of favors involving figures linked to the Pavia prosecutor’s office.
• The strand is separate from the Garlasco case, where former Pavia prosecutor Mario Venditti is under investigation for alleged corruption tied to 2017 investigative actions.
• Early steps in the broader 'Clean' inquiry have already produced arrests of some suspects, and records note Mazza previously handled an Asm municipal company file while in Pavia.
