    Fastweb-related VAT fraud and money-laundering investigation

    Italian judicial authorities investigated transactions involving Fastweb, Telecom Italia Sparkle and third parties over alleged VAT fraud, fictitious international telecommunications deals and money laundering. Former Fastweb executives and founder Silvio Scaglia were among those investigated or subject to legal action. Fastweb stated that the suspected conduct involved third parties using its network, that the company considered itself a damaged party, and that it had acted in compliance with applicable rules. Stefano Parisi temporarily suspended himself as CEO while the matter was investigated. In 2013, Scaglia and other Fastweb-linked managers were acquitted of the tax-fraud allegations reported in connection with the case.
