For weeks, a veil of mystery has hovered around Camila Giorgi, who, after having officially announced her retirement from tennis at the ITIA in May without media communication, had disappeared in recent months, following accusations of tax evasion and false anti-covid vaccinations. In recent weeks, however, the former Italian tennis player came back to posting content on social media.
In an interview, given to the Italian newspaper Corriere del Veneto and also reported by Eurosport, her lawyer has made new statements, explaining where the Italian was before and where she is now.
“Camila Giorgi is in Rome. In recent months she has traveled for work. In short, she has not run away at all as some have insinuated,” said lawyer Edmondo Tomaselli, who thus explained the latest movements of the former winner of the WTA 1000 in Montreal.
She is still busy with the case on false anti-Covid vaccinations, in which she is under investigation. The preliminary hearing is scheduled for November 5: it is likely that a request for an abbreviated trial will be made.
The Vicenza prosecutor’s office (northern Italy) has accused her of falsifying the vaccinations to obtain the green pass (at that time necessary to travel).
“My client spent some time in the United States, then returned to Italy and is also pursuing some work projects but has never disappeared from social media. It’s just gossip, no desire to not be found but only personal commitments. Her fans have always followed her through her Instagram page, she has never been unreachable,” said Camila’s lawyer. She continues to declare herself innocent of the crime of ideological falsehood.
