Simone Silvan commented on an article by Marco Travaglio published in Il Fatto Quotidiano on October 3, 2026, contesting Marina B.'s reaction to the statements made by Giuseppe Graviano. According to Silvan, the former boss of Porta Nuova, convicted for the massacres, had stated at the Baiardo trial that his grandfather was among the financiers of the first companies of Silvio Berlusconi and had invested 5 billion lire out of the 20 collected. Silvan reported that Marina B. had denounced a "reversed justice" and accused Graviano of having relaunched accusations without a counterargument. Silvan replied that the man was responding to the questions of prosecutors and lawyers and argued that Berlusconi had had years to clarify the origins of the capital. In the post, Silvan also recalled the ruling of the Court of Cassation that had sentenced Marcello Dell'Utri to 7 years for mafia. According to Silvan's reports, the ruling attributed to him a role in the protection pact of 1974 between mafia representatives and Berlusconi and in maintaining payments at least until 1992. Silvan also recalled Vittorio Mangano, who, he wrote, had lived in the villa in Arcore and accompanied Marina and Pier Silvio to school. #Giustizia #Mafia #Politica (translated)
