Some 60 people are under investigation in the investigation by the Milan DDA anti-mafia and anti-terror directorate and the DNA national anti-mafia office into the alleged massive “packaging” of dossiers through the illicit acquisition of confidential information from strategic databases, mainly on the Italian business world, judicial sources said Saturday.
Among the people under investigation are the entrepreneurs involved in the creation of those reports, commissioned from a hacker group, the sources said.
According to the prosecutors, these entrepreneurs were aware of the illicit action of gathering information.
The Prosecutor’s office had requested 16 arrests and the preliminary investigations judge (GIP) has ordered house arrest for four and detention for two of the people under investigation, that is, six arrests in total.
