A prosecutor in Milan asked for eight years of jail time for Eni SpA Chief Executive Officer Claudio Descalzi over an allegedly corrupt $1.1 billion Nigerian oil deal.
The court should reach a conclusion later this year on the accusation that most of that payment was distributed as bribes. Any verdict could be subject to a long appeals process.
