The referee's inquiry, the PMs: "None of the Gianluca Rocchi's matches".

The article discusses the ongoing investigation into alleged corruption involving former referee Gianluca Rocchi, who was accused of sports fraud by allegedly complying with requests from certain clubs. Prosecutors in Milan have concluded that there is no organized system aimed at interfering with referee appointments, leading to the decision to continue the inquiry. The prosecutors previously alleged that Rocchi had 'piloted' referee assignments in collaboration with unidentified figures from the Inter sports society, which was later included in the register of suspects under administrative responsibility laws but has since been archived due to the direct exclusion of the presumed crime. The investigation now focuses on the so-called 'bussate' (knockings) at the Var room in Lissone, which falls within the jurisdiction of Monza. The case has been forwarded to the sports judiciary and the General Prosecutor of the Italian Olympic Committee (Coni) for further evaluation of potential violations.
