The Economic and Financial Police Unit of the Guardia di Finanza of Benevento has executed a precautionary seizure order for a total value of €1.197.605,80, issued by the preliminary investigations judge of the Court of Santa Maria Capua Vetere at the request of the Public Prosecutor's Office.

The measure concerns five individuals, all residents of the province of Naples, held responsible, to varying degrees, for the crimes of money laundering, self-laundering, and issuing invoices for non-existent transactions.

The actual precautionary measures, carried out by the Guardia di Finanza and coordinated by the San Marino Public Prosecutor's Office, stem from a series of in-depth investigations aimed at reconstructing the economic relationships of a sole proprietorship based in Naples, operating in the scrap metal trading sector.

The investigators' scrutiny focused on the company's current account, which exhibited significant financial transactions: significant amounts received periodically, followed by regular cash withdrawals at branches in various locations across Campania.

The investigations—albeit in the initial preliminary phase—have revealed that the company issued invoices for non-existent transactions with the aim of laundering illicit proceeds from the undue tax savings achieved by a client company also active in the same commercial sector.

In particular, the numerous financial transactions were allegedly formally justified as payments for alleged commercial transactions, which were in reality fictitious, with the sole purpose of giving a semblance of regularity to the economic relationships between the sole proprietorship and the client company, thus allowing the reinvestment of the illicitly obtained sums.
