Carabinieri from the Salerno Provincial Command have seized documents from the Positano Municipality as part of an investigation into public procurement processes. The inquiry focuses on a tender for four ticket booths to be located on the Positano pier, specifically targeting procedures managed by the previous administration.

Authorities are examining allegations of corruption, bid-rigging, and favoritism toward a specific group of local companies. Investigators are looking into whether contracts were repeatedly awarded to the same entities, potentially bypassing legal rotation principles for public tenders. While the municipality had already canceled the specific tender in June, the investigation remains in a fact-finding stage to verify the regularity of administrative acts. No officials or technicians have been formally charged at this time.
