意大利一个议会委员会指控,前Banca Monte dei Paschi di Siena SpA董事长在去世前曾策划了一次针对该银行公关负责人的恐吓行动。这一发现为这起谜案带来了新的转折——该谜案自13年前Rossi从银行总部办公室窗户坠落以来就一直未得到彻底解决。
An Italian parliamentary commission has alleged that a former Banca Monte dei Paschi di Siena SpA chairman instigated an attempt to intimidate the bank’s communications chief before his death — a dramatic turn in a mystery that has endured since he fell from his office window 13 years ago.
根据委员会在众议院网站上公布的会议记录,委员会收集到的证据表明,前董事长朱塞佩·穆萨里(Giuseppe Mussari)是这次恐吓行动的幕后主使,其目的并非杀害Rossi。
The commission said evidence it gathered alleges that ex-chair, Giuseppe Mussari, was the instigator of an intimidation attempt against David Rossi that was not originally intended to kill him, according to minutes of the commission’s proceedings published on the Chamber of Deputies website.
2013年,Rossi从位于锡耶纳的银行总部办公室窗户坠落。此前两次司法调查均认定这是一起自杀事件。穆萨里目前是卡坦扎罗市(Catanzaro)一家律师事务所的合伙人,但他强烈否认了这些指控。尽管委员会向该律师事务所发送了请求置评的邮件,但并未收到任何回复。委员会的这一调查结果与此前司法部门得出的结论存在显著分歧。
Rossi fell from his office window at the bank’s headquarters in Siena in 2013, in a case that judicial authorities concluded was suicide in two previous investigations. Mussari, listed as a partner at a law firm in the town of Catanzaro, has strongly denied the allegations. Messages sent to the law firm requesting comment weren’t responded to. The committe’s findings represent the sharpest departure yet from the conclusions reached by authorities after Rossi’s death.
Rossi曾是穆萨里多年的得力助手:他最初担任Monte Paschi最大股东“Fondazione Banca Monte dei Paschi”机构的发言人,后在2006年穆萨里当选董事长时被银行聘为正式员工。该银行的发言人拒绝对此事发表评论。
Rossi was a long-time aide to Mussari. He first worked as a spokesman for Monte Paschi’s biggest investor, Fondazione Banca Monte dei Paschi, and then was hired by the bank when Mussari was named chairman in 2006. A spokesperson for the bank declined to comment.
多年来,Rossi的家人一直对“自杀”这一结论提出质疑。媒体调查及专家报告也对该事件的真相提出了诸多疑问。
His family has challenged for years the conclusion that his death was a suicide. Media investigations and expert reports published over the years raised questions over the circumstances of his death.
穆萨里否认了所有指控,称这些指控都是虚假的,并表示他计划通过法律途径来维护自己的权益。在国有电视台Rai的电话采访中,穆萨里表示:“这简直是疯了,这是诽谤!”根据Rai网站上的录音,他补充说:“我从未被任何调查委员会传唤过,我打算起诉所有人。”罗西的死亡发生在这家全球历史最悠久的银行最动荡的时期之一。
Mussari denied any involvement, describing the accusations as false and saying he plans legal action during a phone interview to state-owned Rai television. “This is madness, it’s slander,” Mussari told Rai, according to a recording on its website. “I was never summoned by the commission,” he said, adding that “I’m suing everyone.”Rossi’s death came at one of the most turbulent moments in the history of the world’s oldest bank.
检察官当时正在调查该银行收购Banca Antonveneta的过程,以及一系列可能导致Monte Paschi银行危机的交易行为。在罗西去世前几周,警方曾搜查过他的住所和办公室,但他本人并未受到调查。
Prosecutors were investigating its acquisition of Banca Antonveneta and a series of transactions that contributed to a crisis at Monte Paschi. Rossi’s home and office had been searched weeks before his death in connection with the investigation but wasn’t himself under investigation.
委员会的调查结果仅是一些尚未在法庭上得到证实的指控。切凯雷利也否认自己了解此事,或与罗西死亡事件有任何关联。包括Rai在内的多家媒体都报道了这一消息。
Findings of the committee consist of allegations that haven’t been established in court. Ceccherelli, also denied knowing anything about the case or having any connection to the events surrounding Rossi’s death, media, including Rai, have reported.
这一最新进展是基于议会委员会今年早些时候得出的结论。在今年3月通过的临时报告中,委员会指出:专家证据表明罗西是第三方所为的受害者,排除了自杀的可能性,并认定他的死亡属于他杀。报告还指出,有证据显示罗西在被杀害前被悬挂在办公室窗外,并被用手腕固定住。
The latest development builds on conclusions reached by the parliamentary commission earlier this year. In an interim report approved in March, the panel said expert evidence showed that Rossi had been the victim of an act involving third parties, ruling out suicide and concluding that his death was a homicide. The report said evidence indicated that Rossi had been suspended outside his office window and held by his wrists before falling.

(2013): Monte Paschi Media Chief David Rossi Found Dead, Police Say(2013): Italian Prosecutors Open Probe Into Monte Paschi Insider Trading The first investigation was archived in 2014, reopened the following year at the family’s request and archived again in 2017 after further forensic work. Prosecutors later examined new claims, while parliament set up its first inquiry commission in 2021, which ended the following year when the legislature was dissolved.
当前的议会调查委员会得出了与早期司法调查截然不同的结论。接下来,将由检察官来评估该委员会收集到的最新证据。
The current parliamentary commission has reached a markedly different conclusion from the earlier judicial investigations. It will now be up to prosecutors to assess the latest material gathered by the panel.
