Mayor of Venice resigns over corruption probe



The mayor of the Italian city of Venice, Giorgio Orsoni, has resigned amid a wider investigation into alleged corruption over new flood barriers.


Orsoni stepped down a day after being released from house arrest under a plea bargain, which saw him agreeing to a four-month sentence.

The term, which he is unlikely to serve in prison, requires court approval.

More than 30 people were arrested in the investigation into an alleged slush fund to bribe officials.

  2. It is possible. Mr. Tai Solarin was public complaints commissioner when he was arrested for not carrying his driver's licence. He resigned immediately. We still have some people like that around. Nigeria will get there very soon.
    Great mind I will call them. A very hard & costly step to take. May God help & rescue Nigeria. Toks
