On 7 July 2016, Ciocca succeeded at the European Parliament to Gianluca Buonanno, who died on 5 June in a car crash. On 23 October 2018, he trampled on a letter from the EU Commissioner for Economic and Monetary Affairs Pierre Moscovici on the rejection of the Italian government financial law, boasting then the gesture in that the shoe had been produced in Italy, even if he still getting a salary from the Commission.[3]
Controversies and judicial proceedings
Ciocca had been suspected of consorting with the Italian criminal organisation 'Ndrangheta in Pavia in 2009.[4]
In January 2019, Ciocca was sentenced to 1 year and 6 months (with conditional suspension of the sentence and non-mention) as part of the penal trial concerning the Lombardy Region reimbursement scandal.[5]
