Nine people, including two police officers and a cultural mediator, were arrested recently, accused of speeding up the issuance of residence permits in exchange for benefits, including sexual services.
Comprehensive Italian Fanpage network and Torinotoday network reported that the nine suspects were a deputy police chief, an immigration police officer, a Afghan cultural mediator, and 6 foreign "intermediaries" from different countries. Among them, the Afghan cultural mediator is a key figure in the entire criminal system, and six "intermediaries" are responsible for "acquiring customers." They include one Chinese, two Moroccans, two Albanians and one Pakistani. . The
investigation began in January last year, when the Turin police headquarters noticed some anomalies in the issuance and renewal of residence permits and immediately launched an investigation. Prosecutors pointed out that there were clear signs of the existence of a criminal gang composed of Italians and foreigners. After a series of investigations, a "priority channel" that can quickly obtain residence without queuing and waiting was finally exposed.

According to reports, this criminal gang collects money and various benefits to speed up the issuance of immigration and residence permits. And this is not a new criminal phenomenon that has just emerged, but a stable criminal system that has been operating for a long time. One of the two arrested police officers said that this "residency priority channel" already existed when he first joined the Turin Immigration Bureau, and its existence can be traced back further.
At the same time, the composition of this criminal system is also very complex. According to two police officers, the number of participants in this criminal network is actually much higher than the number of persons currently under investigation. One of them also revealed that the Afghan cultural mediator responsible for managing the criminal system has many "connections" outside the Piedmont region. Those "connections" can help speed up the approval process for asylum applications and residence permits for international protection applications. . This situation will be further investigated and verified later.
Currently, all arrested persons have been charged. At the same time, the suspects' testimonies will further expand the scope of the Turin prosecutor's investigation.
