The puzzle of the double is added to the already intricate story of David Rossi's death. Who is the man seen in a photograph shown on the program 'Lo Stato Cose' talking on the phone in the street in front of Vicolo Monte Pio where the head of communications of Monte dei Paschi di Siena had already fallen from the offices to his death?
The parliamentary commission of inquiry into the Rossi case, with president Gianluca Vinci, said it wanted to have it identified by the district prosecutors and the carabinieri. And for this he will transfer the photos to the records. It is a man who appears on the left side of an image while he is making a telephone call near the entrance to the alley where David Rossi is lying on the ground.
In the broadcast, a connection was made between the man and the former president of MPS Giuseppe Mussari. "It's not him", there is "no lookalike", his lawyers intervene against any allusion to the presence of a person similar in appearance to the former president of the MPS bank. Therefore, Mussari's lawyers, professors Tullio Padovani, Fabio Pisillo and Francesco Marenghi, say: "Anselmi and Mussari look nothing alike as could be immediately verified from a very simple photographic comparison" and "even just doubting and talking about lookalikes is a stretch that brings shame on the right to the press". And another lawyer, Lorenzo De Martino, indicates the person who is actually recognizable in the image.
A well-known professional in Siena. "The subject depicted in the photograph in question, and whose formal identification would have been requested, overlooking the actual necessity of the aforementioned activity as he is a widely known, well-known and recognizable person in Siena - he writes in a note - is Dr. Luca Anselmi as already immediately made known by the latter to anyone who has, in the meantime, contacted him".
Therefore, even according to this lawyer, there is no Mussari. "Anselmi - continues De Martino - despite himself being grossly mistaken for another person" in the broadcast 'The State of Things' "had arrived on the scene, like numerous other people after having received news of the tragic event".
The reconstructions in Massimo Giletti's latest TV program have rekindled the skirmishes in the shadow of the investigation. Not only this. Mussari himself has formalized a complaint with the prosecutors of Rome and Florence for slander, aggravated defamation and revelation of official secrets, for the declarations made before the Commission. The complaints were presented, for various reasons and based on different hypotheses and facts, against Saverio Giampà, Massimo Giletti and Renan William Vilanova Correa. Mussari accuses Giletti of aggravated defamation.
The TV journalist replied: "We will respond in court to the accusations that Mussari makes against me. The only thing I want to say, in light of what I have read and what Mussari's lawyers have said, is that I have not disclosed any classified paper. I only gave a preview of Mussari's name which if it had been classified it would not have been reported the following day by President Vinci to the commission of inquiry."
