A court of first instance in
Milan on Thursday sentenced the former governor of Lombardy and
senator for the centrist NCD party, Roberto Formigoni, to six
years in prison for corruption in the health sector.
The senator, who was on trial with nine other defendants, was
cleared of criminal conspiracy charges. Formigoni was also
banned from holding public office for six years. He was ordered
to pay three million euros to the Lombardy region, where he
served as governor from 1995 until the end of 2012.
