Andrea Stroppa, the Italian contact
for Elon Musk's SpaceX, allegedly received a classified foreign
ministry document from one of those placed under investigation
in a major graft probe involving tech company Sogei and the
defence and interior ministries, a prosecutors' warrant said
Tuesday.
Stroppa is suspected of receiving a confidential Farnesina
document from a suspect in exchange for benefits, it said.
Stroppa is therefore accused by the Rome prosecutor's office of
complicity in corruption.
In particular, the prosecutors say that a Navy staffer in
collaboration with the legal representative of Olidata and
Stroppa "committed acts contrary to his official duties by
illegitimately revealing to Stroppa official information
intended to remain secret".
