Suspected Calciopoli ringleader Luciano Moggi was indicted Tuesday for allegedly libellous statements against Inter Milan.
Former Juventus general manager Moggi, 61, made his claims about false passports and relationships with referees in July 2006, in the midst of the match-fixing scandal that rocked Italian soccer in the run-up to the 2006 World Cup.
In an interview with daily La Repubblica, he cited an allegedly false passport for Urugayan striker Alvaro Recoba for which Inter had plea-bargained and said Inter Chairman Giacinto Facchetti had been seen dining with referee selector Paolo Bergamo.
Facchetti, who died in September 2006, sued for libel.
Along with Moggi, Bergamo is one of many officials, club chiefs and referees on trial for Calciopoli in Naples.
After Calciopoli, Juventus was stripped of two Serie A titles and Inter awarded one.
In a separate trial last year, Moggi received a suspended 18-month sentence relating to the activities of a player management agency run by his son.
