It was the emblematic symbol of the Banco Ambrosiano crack.
Its president Roberto Calvi was found
hanged under Blackfriars Bridge in London
on the morning of June 18, 1982.
A death that, after the first hasty sentence that spoke of suicide, was clearly indicated as
a murder whose perpetrators are still unknown
.
The judicial sentences failed to establish who were
the perpetrators and instigators
of the Milanese banker's murder.
It certainly appears difficult that the sixty-year-old Calvi, in his grisaille as a banker and ballasted by stones and bricks, could have reached that corner under the bridge alone.

That of the Banco Ambrosiano was a collapse that involved powerful and ruthless criminal organizations
, secret societies such as P2, parts of the Italian political and institutional system and the Vatican.
Subjects who undermined the democratic tenure of our country, polluted its economy and had managed, a few years earlier, to send
the heads of the Bank of Italy, Governor Baffi and CEO Sarcinelli
, to jail, who had tried to see clearly in the 'Ambrosiano.
