PSD'AZ regional councilor Giovanni Satta will remain under house arrest , arrested in early October as part of an investigation that revolves around the sale of an RSA in Monastir. According to the indictment - together with the former councilor of the Municipality of Cagliari and current provincial secretary of Confintesa Anselmo Piras and the doctor Franco Savasta - they would have tried to obtain a one million euro consultancy for the intermediation linked to the sale of the health facility . For all the hypotheses of crime are illicit trafficking of influences and, for Pira and Savasta, even attempted extortion.
Also involved in the investigation, but not the recipient of restrictive measures, was the seller of the health facility, Piergiorgio Ollano: he would have promised the sum, signing a private agreement. Following the custody orders, requested by prosecutors Danilo Tronci and Emanuele Secci and signed by the investigating judge, the men of the Guardia di Finanza had placed the regional councilor, the former councilor and the doctor under house arrest.
In recent days, Satta - defended by lawyers Gianluca Aste and Angelo Merlini - had been questioned for almost two hours, answering all the questions from the investigators and the judge. Immediately afterwards, his lawyers had formalized the request for mitigation of the precautionary measure. Today the investigating judge of the Court, Michele Contini, rejected the request, confirming the house arrest .
At the center of the investigation would be the payment of a one million euro consultancy which preceded the sale of the RSA Villa degli Ulivi to the Orpea company, unrelated to the investigation . According to the indictment, the doctor Franco Savasta, anesthetist and resuscitator, allegedly undertook in writing to pay 500 thousand euros of the million agreed to the Sardinian regional councilor as second consultant of the real estate transaction. Not only. In all of this there would also have been some death threats received in anonymous letters from Ollano who, after the sale of the RSA, had refused to pay the promised million euros.
