The Italian mafia gangs and Brazil allied with each other
According to Brazilian press, PCC, a very powerful mafia gang in Brazil, has set up a global cocaine transport alliance with 'Ndrangheta, a famous mafia gang in Italy.

News of the formation of the union between PCC and 'Ndrangheta is not surprising, said political scientist Guaracy Mingardi, a member of the Brazilian Police Forum.

"Over the years, 'Ndrangheta has received cocaine because PCC shipped from the Americas to Europe through the port of Santos. This is the largest port in South America, where records of record drug seizures take place. in recent months, ”explains Mingardi.

For his part, the police colonel in Sao Paulo city, Fernando Henrique Cardoso, former Public Security Minister of the Brazilian Federal Government, said that over the past 20 years, Brazilian mafia gangs have entered and re-entered. export about 50% of cocaine from neighboring countries.

"Crime groups, like the Italian mafia and other groups have centipedes in Brazil," the police officer said.

According to Cardoso, Brazil's border and road routes are poorly protected, thus facilitating domestic drug trafficking, but Brazilian criminal organizations cannot participate in the national flow of cocaine. and must rely on their "colleagues" abroad.

When asked about the possible impact of the mafia coalition on the safety of Brazilians, Cardoso said there is probably no reason to worry. "This coalition hardly affects people's daily lives and does not directly threaten the safety of the people, because it is sophisticated criminal organizations, including freight and Financial complexity, "Cardoso said.

According to the Brazilian Federal Police, with the help of PCC, 'Ndrangheta will control 40% of the world's cocaine transport lines.

(ANSA) - GENOA, 29 JULY - The Gdf of Genoa, in collaboration with the DEA of the USA, seized 368 kg of cocaine, over 953 thousand euros in cash and arrested three Italians for importing drugs from South America. Among the three there is an affiliate to the 'ndrangheta Alvaro di Sinopoli (Reggio Calabria) cosca.
The operation was aimed at contrasting the narco-mafias. Those arrested are accused of international drug trafficking with Mafia aggravating circumstances, huge amounts of drugs and transnationality. The drug seizure took place in the port of Genoa. The airport, as the police forces have long emphasized, remains a strategic point for drug trafficking. Since last November this is the fifth seizure of large quantities of drugs carried out in port. At the beginning of July there had been a seizure of 500 kg of cocaine and another 100 kg had been discovered last June. In January of this year, 2 tons of 'white powder' were taken off the market and last November 270 kg of heroin.

How does the ndrangheta sustain after all of these busts? Are they just a well oiled machine with leaders that can come and go like a revolving door? I have been reading about the De Stefano family and I can see that they have very educated people at the top of their family.

The victims were lured in the countryside probably for a drug trade, Pietro Greco was an emergent criminal but he was no longer answering to the 'rule' of the 'Ndrangheta setting up on his own and for this he had to be eliminated.

I only read this on wikipedia unfortunately without proper sources.

Quote
The Greco Mafia family (Italian pronunciation: [ˈɡrɛːko]) is a historic and one of the most influential Mafia clans in Sicily and Calabria, from the late 19th century. The extended family ruled both in Ciaculli and Croceverde Giardini, two south-eastern outskirts of Palermo in the citrus growing area and also rural areas of Calabria where they controlled the olive oil market.

The Greco clan lost its grip on the mandamento of Ciaculli, which was merged with Brancaccio and the leadership eventually was passed on, but its criminal presence emerged into Calabria in the late 1990s and with the turn of the new millennium, Interpol and FBI intel information showed that the reemergence of the Greco Clan was strongly evident in the United States and Australia, the Grecos were no longer part of the power structures of Cosa Nostra but restructured their organization to adapt to the new ways of organized crime.

it seems just bullshit, the greco's from ciaculli/croceverde have not any relatives in calabria, they have sure connections with ndrangheta, but not relatives living there, let alone ndranghetisti

Ndrangheta, Gratteri: "More bank transfers and banking operations than conflicts"

"The 'Ndrangheta no longer shoots, but buys everything". The words of the prosecutor Nicola Gratteri
The 'Ndrangheta makes more transfers and banking operations than firefights. This is supported by Catanzaro's chief prosecutor Nicola Gratteri , who has been living under escort since 1989, in an interview with the magazine "Famiglia Cristiana".

The magistrate took stock of the situation regarding the 'Ndrangheta, which today is the most powerful mafia , the most branched, a holding company capable of invoicing 50 billion euros a year, able to reinvest 75 percent of its earnings in the legal economy.
"With the proceeds of drug trafficking and other crimes the 'Ndrangheta is now buying as many businesses as it can from Rome upwards, in all European countries, Australia and New York: hotels, restaurants, pizzerias - he said - The 'Ndrangheta no longer shoots, but buys everything. "

During the interview the chief prosecutor explained why the guard dropped in the country :

"The 'Ndrangheta's way of acting does not include shootings, burned cars or murders. It does not create social alarm. Public opinion, in the North but not only, is convinced even today that there is no Mafia in its neighborhood. Now, however, even the South American mafias are buying in the North. The cartels, especially the Colombian ones, which carry cocaine in Europe, only for 9% of the amount they want to be paid in Europe, investing their proceeds here ".

In concluding, the magistrate said:

"The 'Ndrangheta made a great leap in quality in the seventies with the foundation of the' Saint ', a further hierarchical level of the organization that allowed the double affiliation to the' Ndrangheta and the diverted Freemasonry. This has involved ever closer contacts between the mafia and the cadres of the ruling class and institutions. Net of the good investigative results, the situation got out of hand a little for everyone: the police, the judiciary, educators, even the Church. It is a disturbing cultural sign ”.

Michele Zaza had a mansion in Beverly Hills. Was it common for members of the Sicilian mafia, Camorra and ndrangheta to buy lavish properties in such high profile areas in the United States?
