Mr. Scaramella had many interests of his own

SCARAMELLA: WAS IN GARGANO FOR BUSINESS IN EARLY NOVEMBER(AGI) - Foggia, Dec. 9 - Mario Scaramella, the consultant for the Mitrokhin commission, who ended up in the hospital in London for suspected contamination from polonium 210, was in Gargano and in particular in the Gargano National Park at the beginning of November. Scaramella, consultant for the Vesuvio National Park Body, was assigned to carry out the demolition of buildings constructed by organized crime in the protected campana area and was invited by the president of the Gargano National Park, Giandiego Gatta, to discuss some illegal real estate within the Gargano protected area. As was confirmed by the president of the park, Mario Scaramella supposedly had already been in the Gargano previously. The man who ended up in half of the world's newspapers, in fact, supposedly arrived in the province of Foggia as a consultant for a San Marino company that had relations with the minister of the environment, to speak about possible demolitions of illegal real estate: 500 thousand euro were the ministerial funds provided for this goal. Immediately afterwards there was chaos provoked by the news on Scaramella and after remembering his recent visit to the Gargano, the heads of the Park who were worried about what they had read and what was said about Scaramella supposedly sent a letter to the ASL (regional health centre) and the Prefect's office of Foggia.
