“I am certain,” he stated, “that I can demonstrate I acted within the law, in full transparency.”
The extraordinary commissioner of the Port System Authority of the Eastern Adriatic Sea, Antonio Gurrieri, who will be appointed president of the body as soon as his designation is approved by the Chamber, is listed in the register of suspects by the Trieste Prosecutor’s Office for the alleged money laundering involving private consulting fees and sums of money that Asian companies allegedly paid to one of the companies headed by Gurrieri. This was reported by the newspaper “Il Piccolo,” specifying that Gurrieri’s lawyers stated the legality of those operations will be proven.
The investigation was launched following a tax audit of the company Alpe Adria, of which Gurrieri is the CEO. “Regarding the accusation by the Trieste Prosecutor’s Office,” Gurrieri declared, “I am certain I can demonstrate I acted within the law, in full transparency. I am not under investigation for my past or present activities at the port, nor for my role in Alpe Adria, but for private matters on which I will clarify. I will not allow anyone, therefore, to tarnish thirty years of respected and honorable career.
