EU: Thousands of litres of dangerous hand sanitizer seized

EU: Thousands of litres of dangerous hand sanitizer seized by The Associated Press Last Updated Dec 15, 2020 at 8:12 am EDT BRUSSELS The European Union’s anti-fraud body said almost 140,000 litres of dangerous hand sanitizer have been seized across the region since the start of the coronavirus pandemic. The European Anti-Fraud Office (OLAF) said Tuesday the product originated from Turkey and was contaminated with dangerous levels of methanol, a substance likely to create headaches, blurred vision and that can sometimes lead to blindness when used in hand sanitizers. OLAF started the operation in August after Danish authorities passed on information relating to the seizure of 6,000 litres of hand sanitizer from Turkey. The anti-fraud body then relayed the information to all 27 EU member states and OLAF spotted a suspicious shipment to Ireland at the end of September.

Italy: Criminal clans seek to tap into EU funds dw.com 12/12/2020 Daniela De Lorenzo (Italy) Through the recovery fund, the EU will offer member states €1.8 trillion ($2.2 trillion) in grants for COVID-19 spending. 13.5 billion will go to Italy between 2021-2022. But will that money end up where it s needed? © Daniela De Lorenzo/DW Italian criminal clans are seeking to exploit EU funding loopholes There are indications that criminal organizations are preparing to intercept a large sum of the funds slated for Italy and there s widespread public concern that the much-needed financial support is a chimera more than anything else. There is despair, because the situation is already dramatic, and the concern is that the funds will not be spent for the interest of the territory and citizens, says Giuseppe Scognamiglio, a host at Radio Siani and an anti-Camorra activist in Ercolano, just outside Naples.
