(ANSA) – LOCRI, 17 DEC – The former mayor of Riace Mimmo “Lucano has exploited the reception system for the benefit of his political image”. This was written by the president of the Court of Locri Fulvio Accurso in the reasons for the sentence with which the college sentenced Lucano, on 30 September last, to 13 years and 2 months of imprisonment.
An organization, writes the judge, “anything but rudimentary, which respected precise rules to which everyone subjected themselves, permeated by the central, driving and charismatic role of Lucan who allowed the participants chosen by him to enter the reassuring circle of his association protection, in order to be able to achieve illicit profits, through sophisticated mechanisms, tested over the years and which each one performed by providing electoral support in exchange “.
Lucano, “after having carried out the commendable inclusive project of migrants, which resulted in the Riace Model, envied and taken as an example by the whole world, having realized that the amounts given by the State were more than sufficient, he had thought of reinvesting in private forms a large part of those resources, with projects for the revaluation of the territory, which, in addition to constituting a springboard for its political visibility, have resulted in the realization of multiple investments (the purchase of an oil mill and numerous real estate to be allocated to hotels for tourist accommodation), which constituted a sure form of his personal enrichment, on which he knew he could count at the end of his career, to guarantee himself an economic tranquility that he believed was due to him, now feeling tired for what has already been achieved in that specific sector “.
For the Court “it does not matter that the former mayor was found without a euro in his pocket – as he himself proudly boasted to support on several occasions – because if one stopped to evaluate this condition of mere appearance, one would risk rewarding his cunning, disguised as false innocence, while ignoring the existence of a highly conductive evidence, which has given the College a very different image from the one he tried to credit “.
