In total, Umberto Bossi's son would have unduly received 12,800 euros in the form of citizenship income, with Riccardo Bossi making use of the right not to respond: he will now have 20 days to file his own defense statement or ask to be heard.

Unlike his father he only touched on the political sphere, dedicating himself instead to entrepreneurial activity and to that of a rally driver.
Riccardo Bossi was talked about for the first time due to legal troubles in 2012 when, together with his father and brother Renzo, he was investigated for embezzlement by the Milan prosecutor's office in the matter relating to the electoral reimbursements of the League.
In 2019, however, he again appeared in the newspapers for a 66 euro bill in a restaurant in Florence that was not paid; similar events also involved purchases of jewellery, tires and two jet skis.
Now the investigation for fraud against the State has arrived since, according to the investigators, he would have unduly received the citizen's income by collecting a total of 12,800 euros.
In recent years, however, Riccardo Bossi has also filled the pages of gossip magazines, given the many love stories attributed to him such as the one with the showgirl Rosy Dilettuso.
