Overview
- The anti-mafia unit has named 21 suspects and asked for six arrest measures, including house arrest for Urban Regeneration Assessor Giancarlo Tancredi and developer Manfredi Catella.
- Mayor Beppe Sala faces formal investigation for alleged false declarations and undue influence over Giuseppe Marinoni’s appointment and the Pirellino redevelopment.
- Investigators allege a clandestine “Pgt ombra” bypassed official channels, with wiretaps showing former Landscape Commission president Giuseppe Marinoni arranging private-public deals for hefty fees.
- Key schemes under scrutiny include the Pirellino/Torre Botanica project, the Porta Romana Olympic Village and nine strategic city–hinterland nodes tied to SCIA fast-track abuses.
- Preliminary hearings on July 23 will determine whether to enforce the requested measures and further map the network behind nearly two years of stalled Milan construction.
