JAKARTA - AS Roma legend Francesco Totti is undergoing examination by the authorities. The man from Italy stumbled on a case of alleged money laundering.
Totti is reportedly involved in money laundering related to gambling activities. Local authorities suspect a suspicious transaction in the bank account belonging to the former Italian national team striker.
Totti is rumored to be transferring 80 thousand euros or around Rp1.33 billion to an unnamed retiree. Not alone, this action was reportedly assisted by a friend of the former Italian national team player.
His identity was kept secret by the authorities, as reported by Italian media La Verita,
Now the authorities are still investigating the flow of funds provided by Totti. Although they do not know exactly where the purpose of the money Totti gave, the investigators ensure that the transaction has something to do with gambling activities.
This can be seen from Totti's other millions of euros worth of transactions. The transactions reportedly headed to several casinos in Las Vegas, Monte Carlo, and London.
Totti's friend, who is suspected of being an intermediary for money transfers, has also admitted that the 2006 World Cup trophy winner is indeed addicted to gambling. Totti is said to like playing his money at various casinos in Las Vegas and Monte Carlo.
However, the Totti colleague said the 46-year-old man had never made a secret bet.
"He likes Las Vegas and Monte Carlo casinos, but he doesn't make secret bets," said the Totti partner.
Until now, there has been no official statement from Totti because it is still in the process of being investigated. Before this problem surfaced, Totti also experienced another problem with his wife, Ilary Blasil, who eventually separated after being together since 2005.
