And among those under investigation, in fact, there is also the owner of Hellas Maurizio Setti. At dawn the raid was launched by the financial police and the state police who are conducting the investigations, including in the headquarters of the Verona club. Here the investigators delivered the notice of investigation to Setti. The yellow-blue club, however, denies “searches” and reiterates that the investigation concerns “a third-party company”.
