Gabriele Visco, the son of former
Italian finance minister Vincenzo Visco, was among four people
put under house arrest by finance police on Tuesday in relation
to a probe into alleged corruption and influence peddling in
Rome, sources said.
The other suspects are two entrepreneurs and a lawyer, the
sources said.
The finance police also seized 230,000 euros in assets.
The case regards alleged corruption that led to a public
contract worth four million euros going to a firm linked to a
construction entrepreneur and attempts to have a person close to
that entrepreneur employed by a public agency, the sources said.
