CROTONE The Catanzaro DIA has executed a confiscation following the ruling of the Catanzaro Court of Appeal, which became final last February, with which numerous sentences were imposed in the context of the trial born from the Profilo Basso operation concluded in January 2021. The measure concerns 6 people definitively convicted of criminal association, issuing invoices for non-existent transactions, fraudulent transfer of values ??and self-laundering, crimes aggravated by mafia facilitation. Movable and immovable assets as well as banking relationships and financial assets for a total value of approximately 4.8 million euros are transferred to the State . The six collaborated with the heads of the 'ndrangheta locals of San Leonardo di Cutro (Kr) and Roccabernarda (Kr) to create a network of phantom companies (also known as shell companies) that issued false invoices to colluding companies, allowing the latter to evade income taxes and VAT for large amounts, as well as to obtain undue refunds from the Treasury for tax credits that in reality did not exist.
