Vincenzo de Luca cited for wasting public money: what happened
With a summons from the Campania Region Court of Accounts, Governor De Luca will have to face a accounting judgment accused of having wasted public money to the value of 403,643.21 euros. Conduct that could be integrated into the crime of embezzlement.
The money in question would have been used to pay for some anomalous appointments within the regional staff. These are four former traffic guards from Salerno transferred to the governor’s collaborators, in charge of managing relations with the State-Regions conference, the unified conference and national legislative bodies, relations with regional councilors and local institutions. Recently fired positions.
The investigations leading to the subpoena began in 2017, when Governor De Luca was overwhelmed by public criticism for using a Salerno municipal employee as the driver of the regional service car.
The episode led to investigations by the Naples Prosecutor’s Office and then by the Court of Accounts, which examined the hiring of regional staff, the assignment of positions and the related financial aspects.
