Privacy watchdog says focus on access to bank accounts

(ANSA) - ROME, OCT 11 - Italy's privacy watchdog said Friday he would focus on protesting access of bank accounts after a worker at Italy's biggest bank Intesa Sanpaolo accessed the accounts of Premier Giorgia Meloni, her sister Arianna, her former partner and journalist Andrea Giambruno, Senate Speaker Ignazio La Russa, ministers and other top officials and VIPs.
    "We have launched a timely request for information, we have turned a spotlight on a disturbing phenomenon," said Pasquale Stanzione, president of the Guarantor for the protection of personal data, during the final press conference of the G7 of Privacy Guarantors, regarding the recent illicit access to bank current accounts.
    "We are waiting for a justification, a clarification that must come to us from the body that started these accesses, we are vigilant on this situation". (ANSA).
