MILAN, March 17 (Reuters) - A Milan court on Wednesday
acquitted energy groups Eni and Shell along
with a series of past and present managers including Eni CEO
Claudio Descalzi in the oil industry's biggest corruption
scandal.
The sentence, read out in court by judge Marco Tremolada,
comes more than three years after the trial first began and
after a total of 74 hearings.
