A piece of history was erased today, as Siena lost 3 of its titles (both 2012 and 2013 championships and the 2013 Super Cup) according to a verdict from the Federal Court of Rome.
The reason behind these events is Ferdinando Minucci, General Manager of the team back then, and his involvement with the embezzlement scandal of the Monte Dei Paschi bank, Siena’s main sponsor. Minucci may face life imprisonment for these events.
Two more members of the team back then, Olga Finetti and Paola Serpi are now prohibited from participating in any social activities as part of the Italian Basketball Federation, as La Gazzetta Dello Sport reports.
