Turin closes opera corruption inquiry
mainThe police inquiry into alleged collusion between William Graziosi, former head of Teatro Regio Torino, and two Swiss artist agencies has been concluded by the prosecutor, amid street chatter of political interference.
Bottom line: nobody squealed.
In Italian language, chiudere (to close) an investigation means that the investigators have finished their job and they’re passing their result to the judges who have to assess, through due process, whether the facts constitute crime or not.
It’s not been called off. It’s just starting. Italian please…
Your Italian-Please-buddy Muti just stopped by in Turin and left his Italian-Please mark.
I’m missing the connection…care to explain?

Sorry only links to serious newspapers are accepted on SD.
It seems there has been a translation mistake: the investigation was not called off, it was completed and is now going to trial.
In this context, the Italian word “closed” means “completed” (as in “close the circuit”), it does not mean “shut down” (as in “the shop was closed”)
