Rome Police Dig Under Casa del Jazz in Search for Judge Paolo Adinolfi

Authorities authorized the search after a request by former judge Guglielmo Muntoni.

Overview

  • Multidisciplinary teams began excavations at dawn on November 13 under and around the Casa del Jazz, and the area is sealed off.
  • The site once belonged to Enrico Nicoletti, identified in reporting as the Banda della Magliana’s cashier, and investigators are examining possible underground galleries.
  • Paolo Adinolfi vanished on July 2, 1994 after leaving his home, and his car was later found in Rome’s Villaggio Olimpico district.
  • Adinolfi had served in the bankruptcy section, handling complex cases including Fiscom and Ambra Assicurazioni, with the Fiscom case yielding a first‑instance conviction of Nicoletti.
  • Officials have not disclosed the new lead that prompted the operation, and authorities have not reported any findings so far.
