The more than 12 thousand euros of citizen income unduly received according to the accusation are not the only problem that Riccardo Bossi faces. Three convictions in the course of the Senatùr's son: in 2016 one year and eight months for League funds then another conviction for taking jewelry without paying for it for 26 thousand euros. Finally, the gas station debts in 2017. The crimes are fraud, embezzlement and fraudulent insolvency. This time, the accusation relates to false certifications. In the Single Self-Declaration (SSD) relating to the grant application, he declared that he held a rental contract. For an appointment via Mentana to Busto Arsizio. From which he had been expelled some time ago.
Investigation
The investigation, said today Republic, was born from an inspection by the Guardia di Finanza of Varese. In the documents of prosecutor Nicoletta Calcaterra are the tax declarations, which investigators consider false, and the testimonies of the owners of the properties. But the life of Umberto Bossi's firstborn has always been a bit marginal. He used League funds for car rentals and pay television subscriptions, for university fees and for the upkeep of his ex-wife. But the real passion of this 45-year-old man is racing cars. He participated in rallies in Lombardy and Veneto. But in 2012 he wrecked a BMW M3 and was fired from his team. He too, like his more famous brother Renzo, was a parliamentary assistant to a member of the Northern League: Francesco Speroni.
The fines
With money from the League, Renzo paid fines of 145 thousand euros and tax bills, as well as insurance. But he also spent 77,000 euros to get a degree in business management at Kristal University in Tirana in Albania. Riccardo, on the other hand, was convicted of embezzlement due to a Rolex, a choker and a Bulgari ring. He promised the jeweler a bank transfer of 26 thousand euros which never arrived. Then there's the gas station. To whom he did not pay 1,300 euros for his Audi. But there is also the 3,200 euros of debt from the tire dealer and the 7,600 euros of lamps. In 2020, however, it was reported for a dinner with champagne for 240 euros in Milan and 66 euros in Florence.
