Raid at the Scientology Headquarters in Turin: Secret Archives with Information on Sex, Health, and Politics Found

May 20, 2010

Scientology is under investigation by the Turin prosecutor's office. Equipped with a magistrate's warrant, a mobile squad raided the religious organization's headquarters in Turin. According to a report by La Stampa, investigators were looking for the personal files dedicated to members as well as to enemies of Scientology.

For nine hours, police rummaged through the offices located on Via Bersezio. In the basement, hidden behind a locked door, investigators are said to have found secret archives with files on magistrates, policemen, journalists, and relatives of former followers.

Their content is now being examined by the judiciary, however the Turin daily newspaper reports that the files are crammed with sensitive information about sex, health and politics. A4 sheets full of strange acronyms and intelligible only to the cult's ministers, who record on these pages the results of e-meter sessions, a special examination which supposedly enables Scientology to understand the spiritual state of patients.

The suspected offense is related to the violation of the standards for the handling of sensitive data.

It just keeps getting worse and worse.

And this is just the beginning.

It just keeps getting better and better!

They found secret archives with files on magistrates, policemen, journalists, and relatives of former followers.

This means that governments all over the world have a reason to raid Scientology orgs and missions RIGHT NOW before they destroy or try to hide these files.

I wonder what they have on officials in Clearwater?

In Chicago?

In Los Angeles?
 
It just occurred to me that the Turin police made it in just before Thursday 2pm both in Italy and in LA (home of OSA Int).

Ok, i am overdoing it with the emoticons but this is great. That means the world is starting to wake up! Thanks to Xenophon! :thumbsup:

The one thing that worries me is that obviously every org in the world will be informed of this and they will try to hide or destroy their 'secret files'.

Wait...did I say destroy???? :D

Scientology in Trouble: Secret Files Discovered in the Turin Headquarters

by Gianni Leone

May 20, 2010

I've always said that Scientology is an organization with little transparency and, for a long time already, I've been speaking out against the activities of this psycho-sect on Italian territory and abroad. For months, I've been demanding an investigation into Scientology's establishments in Italy.

Acting on a warrant, the Turin police have raided the Scientology headquarters in Turin. Guess what came up? In the basement, hidden behind a locked door, secret archives were found with files on magistrates, policemen, journalists (me maybe??), and, of course, everyone Scientology considers an enemy. The files apparently contain sensitive information and photos.

The material is currently being examined by the judiciary. The suspected offense is related to the violation of the standards for the handling of sensitive data.

I continue to formally request, from the pages of this magazine:

  • that the competent authorities verify the actual funds and property of Scientology on Italian territory

  • that the Ministry of Health perform a verification concerning the "Narconon" communities which charge money for a detoxification method with no scientific value

  • that consumer groups campaign against this psycho-sect which operates on Italian territory and practices mental conditioning

  • that antitrust authorities take action against the "deceptive advertising" and "press releases" that Scientology spreads over the Internet
I appeal to all honest parliamentarians who know the dangers of psycho-sects to launch an inquiry into the real activity of Scientology in Italy. DO NOT REMAIN PASSIVE.

The problem of psycho-sects touches 1 million people in Italy. It is a very grave problem which must be tackled seriously and firmly.
 
This is awesome. Looks like the Psycho-sect has been compromised in Italy!

I´d crap my pants if the Carabineri raided my local headquarter. :happydance:
