Biography
He was born in
Italian Fasces of Combat in April 1921. He then led the "action squads" in Polesine and took part in the March on Rome at the head of the "Polesana" Legion. For a short time, from January to March 1925, he was a member of the federal secretariat of the National Fascist Party of Rovigo, and following the establishment of the Voluntary Militia for National Security, he joined it, reaching the rank of console generale (brigadier general).[1][2][3][4][5][6][7]
On 16 December 1926 Tiengo was appointed second class
basilica of San Giovanni in Laterano. Tiengo, in the meantime, was transferred to the prefecture of Bologna on 1 August 1936, but only held the post for two weeks before being appointed prefect of Turin, replacing the previous prefect who had come into conflict with the federal secretary of the local section of the Fascist Party, Piero Gazzotti. Tiengo held until 1 February 1941.[8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15]
In February 1941 he was appointed prefect of
Ministry of Finance, with the post of Commissioner for Paper and Cellulose and then of President of the National Institute for Consumption Tax Management. He retired for health reasons in August 1943.[16][17][18][19][20][21]
Tiengo did not held any office during the
Western Allies, and warned the dictator, thus ending the negotiations. Tiengo did not follow Mussolini in his flight north later on that evening, and was found dead in Paullo on 11 May 1945; in his hand a piece of paper was found, on which he had written in pencil "I am Carlo Tiengo".[22][23][24][25][26]
