Assets for a total value of over 600 thousand euros were seized from three directors of a pharmaceutical company based in Reggello (Florence).
The seizure of the pharmaceutical company, ordered by the investigating judge Antonella Zatini at the request of the prosecutor Gianni Tei, was carried out for the equivalent of taxes evaded by the company between 2012 and 2017, through the use of false invoices for approximately 6 million euros.
According to what was explained by the gdf, the company, part of a group among the world's leading with plants all over the world, would have classified as costs - with consequent reduction of income and related taxes - those documented by invoices issued to it by the parent company established in Luxembourg. These costs, however, referred to services that had never been performed, with the sole purpose of reducing taxable income. According to the prosecution, the issuing of false invoices also allowed the company to evade VAT for 250,000 euros and IRAP for 270,000.
The invoices that ended up at the center of the investigation were issued to Istituto De Angeli srl based in Prulli in the municipality of Reggello (Florence), by one of the companies of the business group to which the Italian srl belongs, whose directors are the recipients of the seizure.
At the center of the investigation, alleged invoices for 'managerial services', a category which includes, among other things, accounting and financial management and control activities.
