On Monday, September 19, the Prato court sentenced 53-year-old accountant Alberto Robbi to 6 years and 9 months in prison. The accountant was arrested in November 2016 for criminal gangs, fraud, and forgery of false ideological . Lorenzo Gestri, the prosecutor in charge of investigation and prosecution, demanded a more severe sentence: eight years.
The judge of the Prato Court said in his verdict that the accounting firm can be called a "document factory." In his office, as long as you pay, those who do not have documents to apply for issuing or renewing a residence permit can all "buy" the required documents - employment contracts, salary lists and housing contracts, etc., for a price of 1,500 to 1,800 euros, and the highest is 3,000 euros.
This is a long and difficult investigation, and the process is not over yet. Zhong Rongchang, a partner of Robbi's Prato company, has been sentenced to five years in prison.
As Filippo Rosini, a labor consultant to his firm, was indicted in May and the trial will begin in the coming weeks. He was accompanied by fifty defendants, mostly Chinese, who were accused of fraud, false ideology and helping and abetting illegal immigrants. According to the law, once the crime is convicted, the residence of these people will be "destroyed".
