After being suspended from his position as city councilor in Mazara, 57-year-old Giovanni Iacono Fullone was also relieved of his duties as coach of the Mazara 46 soccer team, which plays in the Eccellenza league. “This is until his position is clarified,” said the vice president of the Mazara soccer club, Giampiero Giacalone. Businessman Giovanni Iacono Fullone has been placed under house arrest for his involvement in the Aspide judicial affair carried out by the Trapani finance police, which uncovered a series of illegal activities carried out by managers and employees within the provincial health company. The chapter of the ordinance issued by Judge Caterina Brignone dedicated to Iacono is rich in details. According to the investigation, Iacono would have been favored by being informed in advance about the procedures of a tender and receiving technical extensions. To repay them, he allegedly gave Messina and Cruciata a box of prawns on February 23, 2021, and to Messina alone, scampi on April 1, 2021, and eight slices of swordfish on May 19, 2021.
