The protective order had been pending for months, so much so that investigators had been searching for Bochicchio, who went to Dubai last year, at least since the summer of last year. In the investigation, the Campania-born broker is accused of laundering money from his clients. It was seized, again by order of the magistrate Valori, among other things, a prestigious property in Cortina d’Ampezzo (Bellono), a vase by Picasso and some works by Giacomo Balla and Mario Chivano, photographs of Richard Avedon, as well as a million euros for current accounts and policies. From 2011 on, reading the documents, Bochicchio allegedly “gathered it through the two companies Kidman Asset Management and Tiber Capital” which he created, managed and led in London (the city where he lived with his wives and children) “a significant capital for his clients” . The money he would have diverted into investments “even in countries with low taxes, maximum protection of confidentiality and low judicial cooperation, such as Singapore, Hong Kong and the United Arab Emirates, promising high returns and, if necessary, also absolute secrecy (…), omitting established controls to combat money laundering.”
