Two citizens were arrested by the financial police for having
faked disability and having received subsidies for 66 thousand euros.
The precautionary custody order was signed by the investigating judge of Monza.
This is a
28-year-old resident in Misinto (Monza)
, in prison for pretending to be blind and having received citizenship income by declaring that he had been in Italy for more than ten years, and a 48-year-old resident
in
Cesano Maderno (Monza),
under house arrest for having faked a serious disability that forced him to use a wheelchair, while also illegally receiving benefits.
The two fake invalids, arrested in Brianza, are friends, both Pakistani.
For both, various charges are for aggravated fraud to obtain public funds, false ideology by inducement, undue receipt of citizenship income and self-laundering.

The GdF caught them together in the car.
The driver was the 28-year-old, falsely blind who received an allowance, and sitting next to him was the 48-year-old who had pretended to be seriously disabled, forced to move around in a wheelchair.
The films of the financiers show him walking and getting into his compatriot's car.
He also received benefits for his declared disability which have now been blocked.
The INPS collaborated in the investigation by the Guardia di Finanza of Monza which also involved the doctors responsible for the investigations and who were found to be unrelated to the crimes complained of.
