(Alliance News) - Consob has permanently blocked the abusive takeover bid for Piaggio & C. Spa's ordinary shares promoted in recent weeks by JSC Handel Gruppe, thus turning the temporary suspension of the offer announced last Oct. 10 into a final one.

The termination of the takeover bid is accompanied by a request to LinkedIN Ireland to make permanent the removal of the web pages through which it was promoted.

Piaggio trades in the green by 0.6 percent at EUR2.68 per share.
