The GUP of Rome has indicted the entrepreneur Renato Soru , former governor of Sardinia, and others in the context of the proceedings relating to the bankruptcy of the newspaper l'Unità.
The trial was set for February 13th .
Against Soru and others, as reported by Ansa, the accusation is of bankruptcy due to distraction and dissipation .
Soru, defended by the lawyer Fabio Pili, appears in the proceedings for his role as shareholder carried out from 2008 to 2015 in relation to the management of the newspaper.
"As on other occasions, in this case too I will defend myself in the trial, saddened by this further test that I have had to endure in the last twenty years. However, I am sure that my absolute innocence will once again be recognized," says Soru.
Who then enters into the merits of the story: “I was indicted for disputes of facts dating back more than eight years ago, connected to the matter of the arrangement with creditors of L'Unità. Although I am aware of the fact that the Gup does not enter into the merits of the accusations but only evaluates whether the trial should be held, the decision surprised me very much. I was absurdly accused of misleading money, but in the rescue of this historic newspaper I have only invested huge resources in several times and I never got back for any reason not even one euro or any other benefit ".
