He will have to defend himself from the accusation of extortion on 6 July before the judges of the panel of the Court of Oristano .

The former correspondent of Striscia la Notizia, Cristian Cocco , had in fact been denounced by the operator who worked with him for the creation of services for Mediaset.

According to the dispute, in four years he would have stolen over sixty thousand euros .

Cocco was indicted this morning by judge Federica Fulgheri, who accepted the request of the prosecutor Valerio Bagatini.

The defense , the lawyer Cristina Puddu , is ready to give battle .

Also according to the complaint, Cristian Cocco would have threatened Aversano by telling him that if he did not give him half of the fees received for the services he would have interrupted his professional collaboration; at that point he would have turned to another operator and, thus, would have left him unemployed.

Lawyer Puddu claims that Cocco has been denounced with false accusations and that the whole affair is unclear. In any case, the defender goes on, from all this story Cocco has suffered serious damage in terms of work .
