"There are some people who have obtained the qualification to the legal practice and are members of professional associations," said prosecutor Antonio Vincenzo Lombardo, while stressing that it is "a gnawing number." About a dozen which is to be entered several orders of Calabria, and in some regions of northern Italy. People who have now been seized degrees are investigated at various levels of corruption, falsification of public document, false, by induction, suppression and distribution of documents and the misuse of the legal profession. It is yet to be ascertained, however, if those who have obtained the qualification in question, have also had the same facilities as that is unlawful, for example, but not to take the examination in the booklet to find the certification of overcoming it. Meanwhile, the Public Prosecutor's Office has seen fit to report the names of professional associations of persons under investigation and which was seized a law degree. Then touches the orders then provide forensic, at least for the moment, to suspend the people involved in the investigation until it is finally shed light on their positions.

They could be enough to get 300 € attest to the book have passed an examination, which was never actually supported. He revealed a student of the Faculty of Law, who worked in the investigation that led to the arrest last year of an official University of Catanzaro, Francesco Marcello is accused of receiving payments in exchange for the falsification of certain examinations and convicted at first instance. Corruption, falsification of public document, false, by induction, suppression and destruction of records, improper exercise of the legal profession, these are allegations that the prosecutors and Paul Catanzaro Salvatore Curcio oil have served to as many doctors in law, combined with a decree search and seizure with which the police department operating in the city of Calabria have scoured the archives of the administrative offices of the University of Catanzaro, looking for evidence of crime reflected the assumptions made by the magistrates. 'In the university - Has told prosecutors the student employee - we knew that it was possible to buy the examinations by Mr. Marcello. Speaking then I have been told that there were people who were moving smartly, bringing students in trouble, that maybe they had some problems to overcome exam. Then from there you had to rely completely on them. " So when you fail an exam, just ask them that regulated everything, putting on the books and forged signatures on statins, but they had not reckoned with a professor who knows by heart the names of students who exams. The investigation, which had been started from a complaint a professor who had noticed that the libretto of a graduate student there were too many scratches, but also that it had passed the exam on his subject without knowing anything about the teacher. The investigation by the prosecutor's office of Catanzaro, which led to the seizure of 48 degrees continues, then beat serrato.I on disposition of the soldiers of the deputy public prosecutor Salvatore Curcio, have seized a substantial documentation in the administrative offices of the faculty which is now being studied by investigators. "A timely complaint which in its time, the bodies of the university had submitted to the Prosecutor of Catanzaro is its elements of clarity." It was the first comment of the Rector of the University of Catanzaro, Francesco Saverio Costanzo, who expressed a "clear appreciation for the manner and timing with which the public prosecutor of Catanzaro has been clear about what was complained of by the University , 'Magna Graecia', on suspicions of irregularities in the certificate of university exams for the degree course in law. This fact reassures us - adds the Chancellor - it shows that the path chosen by our University to the highest degree of care, control and transparency to devote to all aspects of administrative life, is a choice that pays off. This approach will be further pursued and reinforced in every aspect of academic life. " "It's a situation that is ongoing and opens disturbing scenarios" - commented the President of the Bar of Catanzaro, Giuseppe Iannello -. We are concerned especially for those cases of lawyers who are already working. The fact, then, speaks for itself. We have to wait, though. conclude that the prosecutor's investigation to fully understand what and 'widespread phenomenon. In the coming days there will be a meeting of the council and I do not exclude that we will face this event too. "
"He has bought a degree in Law in Catanzaro"
THE CASE. A resident in the Calabrian city among the 48 investigated for corruption. Some tests would have supported them
infidel would pay an official of the University "Magna Graecia" to get votes on the record book. He now works for a private company
There is also a fake doctors in Vicenza among law proclaimed by the University of Catanzaro Magna Graecia. It is the contention of the Calabrian prosecutor who coordinated investigation by the police and that the other morning has sent notices of investigation to 48 people accused of corruption in various ways, falsification of public document, false, by induction, suppression and destruction of documents and unlawful practice of the profession.
Salvatore Vaccaro, 40, a native of Croton, but long resident in the city where he works in a private company, is among those who would buy any evaluation of the university paying the unfaithful servant Francesco Marcello, 50, of Catanzaro, already ; arrested in recent months during the first phase of the investigation and to whom the court has already imposed three years' imprisonment. The degree of
Vaccaro, like the other 47 new suspects, was seized by the prosecutor and now the "doctor" runs the risk of being confiscated his degree. Paper, as happened for the first 13 graduates who wished to negotiate.
On the other hand, is the reasoning of the prosecutor in Calabria, that title has been obtained on invalid assumptions. In order to attain the time of the dissertation before the faculty committee, which opens the way to the proclamation of "doctor" and the diploma, you must have passed all the exams included in the curriculum. It was not the case, for example, Vaccaro, which is alleged to have bought some tests that apparently could not or did not intend to deal with.
The mechanism discovered by the police was actually quite simple: Marcello, former head of the secretariat of the students, and cash in bribes in exchange for falsifying books and records of the various academic subjects, or raising the votes at will in reality testing or recording and never incurred. No one in the office, one would have noticed anything.
To find out the dust in 2007, was the attorney who had discovered a perverse criminal circuit in college. And now, after the first trial, there were a number of other cases of sale of tests that led then to graduate.
The case of Vicenza, however, is the least serious. Among the 47 other suspects are in fact 10 members of their provincial lawyers (especially in Calabria, but also to the north of Italy) and 25 practitioners. Practicing lawyer, but without authority.
And still other suspects work in public after winning state competitions, which were able to access, due to a law degree. Their position remains to be evaluated, and it is possible that if the process is complete, which will start at the end of the investigations, their title will be canceled in those contests have to be redone after years of their conclusion.
Vaccaro, however, work for a private company, and therefore should not have problems at work. Also remains to be verified, explained by Catanzaro, what will the Council of the University's Faculty of Law of the 48 cases identified so far during the investigation: to be canceled in whole university curricula of suspects, or they are really and legally to be redone examinations that have bought from Marcellus, and of course the argument?

sold Tests at the University of Catanzaro. The pro-rector: there muddying The university set up a disciplinary committee to assess measures against students and graduates involved
Among the addressees of that measure ten lawyers, engaged in the professional members of different orders as well as the Calabria region in northern Italy, 25 trainee lawyers 13 professionals and successful candidates in the public service.
Vincent de Iudicibus. Il Messaggero - Rome (31 March) - It was presented at the university for his moment of glory, fully dressed and with a thick crowd of relatives and friends in tow. But one of the professors in the committee, while the student setting out his thesis in Economics company, had a sudden flash: the girl had argued with him a test and refused a 18. Since then he had not seen her, and wondered how he could have passed the examination in other ways, getting to graduation day. The scandal of the tests "sold". Thus was born from the suspicion of a teacher become the first certainty, then complained to the Prosecutor's Office, the line of investigation on the scandal of the tests "sold" Magna Graecia University of Catanzaro. Philo that from November 2007 to date has spread like wildfire involving the right of Law, with the cancellation of 48 degrees last week. Among the recipients of the measure ten lawyers, engaged in the professional members of different orders as well as the Calabria region in northern Italy, 25 and 13 lawyers practicing professionals in the public amministrazione.L successful candidates' survey covers a period of time ranging 2000 to 2007. Years in which they consumed in Catanzaro a true sale of tests that were not even supported. To make this possible was the official voice of the university teaching Marcello Francesco (sentenced to three years' imprisonment), which was paid to falsify statins, making look like tests never exceeded incurred. For 65 times he had done without being detected. But there is the Magna Graecia to sink in the scandal. Why the Vice Rector of the University Luigi Ventura, Dean of the Faculty of Law, tells the story of graduating in Economics: "Now after noting the anomaly of the student we have established a technical committee - said - We tested three other similar cases and incidents reported to the Public Prosecutor's Office to investigate how the forgeries were done exams. We were the first ever institution that is self-reported, even aware of what effect that this would bring. " The maxifascicolo scandal sees members under investigation 68 people. The charges range for criminal association with aggravated theft. And then, again, abuse of office, embezzlement, corruption and deceit material and ideological. The university set up a disciplinary committee. The university has set up a disciplinary committee in recent days to examine the position of students and graduates involved in the investigation, and has a civil "on students and graduates have disciplinary powers - continued Ventura - Can we cancel the examinations and degrees and suspend students for up to three years. In reality, what we would do would be to expel them, but the law does not allow him to. " The theft of the test for admission to Medicine. Another tranche of the investigation concerns the theft of the test for admission to medical school: the judges have asked for an extension three months to dismantle the network of complicity that is hidden behind the statements and employee information Cuteri Antonio 's cleaner and supervision of classrooms Walter Mancuso, both involved and will be considered in April. Even in this case the pro-rector Ventura wants to emphasize the immediacy of the complaint: "I was at university in the afternoon when he saw the Rector of what had happened - he says - the next morning we were to withdraw from the attorney & rsquo ; happened. Sorry to see what is involved in these scandals and dirty from the mud that was thrown at the teachers, and students pertaining to these maneuvers have always studied and have always been busy. " The entries do not decrease. But the scandals do not discourage enrollment. Over the past two years, in fact, the inscriptions to Magna Graecia not decreased, "We have four thousand members and growing requirements - concludes Ventura - Even in the hardest hit by the scandal may, that of law: every year with the limited number of inputs we expect 600, but requests always exceed the roof of admissions.
