On the morning of Tuesday, the 28th, the **Financial Police of the Provincial Command of Trento**, in collaboration with the Central Service for the Investigation of Organized Crime and other units, executed a decree issued by the G.I.P. of Trento, seizing over **2.8 million euros** from seven individuals involved in a **major tax fraud** scheme in the luxury car sector. The operations took place not only in Trentino but also in the provinces of Varese and Brescia, and even in Ibiza (Spain). The investigation, initiated in October 2022, uncovered a criminal organization that managed companies falsely registered abroad to evade VAT through the rental of high-end vehicles.
The investigations revealed an international tax fraud with VAT evasion exceeding **2.3 million euros** for the years 2021 and 2022. Part of the illicit proceeds was used to purchase properties in Desenzano del Garda and to finance a company in Lombardy, constituting acts of **money laundering**. A total of eleven individuals are involved in the investigations for crimes including tax fraud and receiving stolen goods. More than thirty searches have been conducted across various Italian provinces to gather additional evidence pertinent to the case.
