The Guardia di Finanza has arrested the mayor of Sorrento in Italy, Massimo Coppola. According to Italian media, the mayor is accused of crimes against public administration.
Coppola was stopped last night while pocketing some money during a dinner he attended after a sporting event.
The mayor was allegedly caught red-handed while embezzling 6 thousand euros from an entrepreneur, in connection with the contract for the assignment of school canteen services for the period 2023-2026, awarded to the same entrepreneur by the Municipality of Sorrento, for a total base auction value of over 4.5 million euros.
Currently, the mayor is accused of the crime of unfair inducement to give or promise benefits.
Mayor Massimo Coppola is a 48-year-old lawyer. In the last elections of 2020, he was elected from a series of citizen lists. (A2 Televizion)
