Massimo Moratti

Following the death of a worker at the Saras site, Massimo Moratti, then a company director, was implicated alongside other officials in manslaughter proceedings. In 2016, he entered into a negotiated sentencing procedure (patteggiamento), with the sentence converted into a financial penalty.

Christian Vieri maintained that he had been placed under surveillance at the request of Inter's management. Civil proceedings resulted in judgments against Inter and Telecom, with compensation subsequently reduced on appeal. The reported decisions concerned the companies, not Moratti personally.

The federal reopening of the debate concerning intercepted communications not examined in 2006 led sporting disciplinary authorities to examine conduct linked to Inter and its former president Giacinto Facchetti. Massimo Moratti's case was closed, and the FIGC recognised the procedural impossibility of pursuing time-barred conduct.

Saras's 2006 stock market flotation sparked major controversy after the share price fell and public allegations emerged of overvaluation benefiting the Moratti family. An investigation targeted financial intermediaries; it was subsequently closed.

Amid the Telecom dossiers scandal, Moratti acknowledged having asked Giuliano Tavaroli to conduct checks following information received about referee Massimo De Santis. The affair fuelled suspicions of private surveillance surrounding Inter, but the sporting proceedings against Moratti were closed.
