Galan tied to '$50mn in Asian dummy corp. deals' - update

(ANSA) - Venice, June 23 - Former Berlusconi minister and sitting MP Gianfranco Galan has engaged in "conspicuous commercial deals in Southeast Asia" worth $50 million, deals outlined in documents tied to a dummy corporation in his accountant's name but "traceable to the Galan family," prosecutors' case files showed Monday. Galan faces possible arrest for allegedly receiving millions in bribes from the consortium in charge of the multi-billion-euro MOSE flood barriers in Venice.
