Children who learn to shoot, work as drug couriers or dismember the dead: the Calabrian mafia grows up with criminal activities. Few adults do anything about it.

By Christian Gramstadt, SWR, and Patrizia Venditti

The Bonaventura-Vrenna family belongs to the powerful and internationally operating clans of the Calabrian mafia, the 'Ndrangheta. Luigi Bonaventura had a bloody feud at the age of ten. A few years later, he shot himself. At 35, he became a key witness to the Italian public prosecutor's office.

"Clan girls are already mafiosi at the age of 13. They are supposed to take care of the mafia morals in the family," he says. "Boys learn to use weapons from an early age. They are used to blood and violence during animal slaughter. It's a childhood like jihadists."

Large family clans also active in Germany
Luigi Bonaventura has broken with his family. In 2019, he reported a constant drill to violence: "In Africa (...) children are kidnapped, mostly drugged and brought to the battlefield as child soldiers with a gun. At 'Ndrangheta, the offspring are raised from childhood to crime and killing "he compares. "They are prisoners of their families and the archaic mafia mentality."

According to a study by the Italian research institute Demoskopita in 2016, the 'Ndrangheta is organized into almost 400 family clans with many children, who can rely on more than 50,000 followers worldwide. Almost 300 'Ndranghetists are said to be active in Germany.

Foster care is bearing fruit
An Italian law has been in place since 2013 that allows judges to preventively isolate acutely vulnerable girls, boys and mothers with their children from their mafia-like surroundings and to place them far away with foster families.

A legal milestone on which Roberto Di Bella sets his project "Liberi di scelgere" ("Free to choose"). Together with civil servants, educators and therapists, he tries to breathe life into the youth law: with communal tasks and games that are intended to convey a piece of carefree childhood to the children, and with a lesson that lets them feel that life is beyond "honor, blood" and violence "is quite normal and possible.

The Reggio Calabria Regional Youth Court has intervened 60 times since then. 70 minors were placed with foster parents in other provinces. 30 core families from 'Ndrangheta clans found a new home outside of Calabria.

The former boss Luigi Bonaventura also told a journalist:" When I was on the other side, I tried to surround myself with the major computer experts.. And to be the boss of ` ndrangheta, knowing how to shoot is not enough. First of all you have to "know how to think" and stay one step ahead of others ... the `Ndrangheta always points a token on new technologies".

In Europe, the police have ascertained the existence of the Ndrangheta (through the presence of the premises, the capture of fugitives or the seizure of assets) in Austria, Belgium, Croatia, France, Germany, Great Britain, Ireland, Luxembourg, Malta, the Netherlands, Portugal, Monaco, Romania, San Marino, Slovenia, Spain, Switzerland.
Its presence in the world has been ascertained in Liberia, Morocco, Seichelles (for Africa), the Netherlands Antilles, Argentina, Brazil, Canada, Colombia, Costa Rica, French Guayana, Panama, Dominican Republic, Uruguay, USA (for the America) and Australia.

Interpenetrations between 'ndrangheta and deviated masonry
Thu, 02/06/2020 - 20:30
Judicial

Regarding the "interpenetration between 'ndrangheta and deviated masonry", the XXXIII Legislature by the Parliamentary Commission of Inquiry on the phenomenon of the Mafia and other similar criminal associations summarizes several of the concepts that emerged during a series of investigative findings, largely founded on the investigative results of investigations that took place in the Province of Reggio Calabria.
At the end of the 70s, minority sectors of the judiciary began to report hypotheses of hidden links between Calabrian organized crime and freemasonry, as worrying signs of a new form of insertion in the power circuits. But, beyond meager and rare procedural findings, it will be necessary to wait for the season of the collaborators to have reliable confirmations.
Only from 1992, and in particular in the documents of the so-called "Olimpia" operation of the DDA of Reggio Calabria, will an organic reconstruction of these relationships come also in light of the changes that occurred at the end of the 70s within the 'ndrangheta, changes that will result, in light of today's knowledge, functional precisely to the formation of those relationships and those connections with a part of masonry. It is the Commission's belief that the Calabrian masonry, which boasts an ancient and solid settlement and dates back to the dawn of the Italian Risorgimento, is not as a whole a deviated masonry.
In the second half of the '70s the' Ndrangheta found itself at a crossroads: either to continue being a criminal organization dedicated to extortion and kidnapping, or to make a qualitative leap and enter the circuits of power to transform itself into a 'mafia entrepreneur ", in an independent economic and political entity, capable of interacting with representatives of institutions, public administrations, parties, and offering their" services "in the procurement sector, in the collection of electoral consents, and so on. To do this the 'ndrangheta found itself in the need to create a new, elite structure, a new leadership, extraneous to the traditional hierarchies of the "locals", able to move in an unprejudiced way, without the limits of the old honored society and its subculture and especially, without the traditional prohibitions, established by the code of the 'Ndrangheta, of having contacts of any kind with the so-called "contrasts", that is, with all strangers to the old honored society. New rules replaced the traditional ones, which did not disappear completely, but which remained in force only for the basis of the 'ndrangheta, while a new organizational level was born, the prerogative of the top characters who acquired the possibility of moving freely between state apparatuses, services. secrets and subversive groups.
Thus was born the "Saint", and "santisti" are called its members, who constitute what can be called the "strategic direction" of the new 'ndrangheta. About the "Saint", there are many statements by collaborators of justice. They clearly outline the new structure and the characters that would be part of it. It is good to warn that it is not easy to find certain evidence, especially in relation to the people involved, about their belonging to "covered" Masonic lodges. And this is because they are not only two organizations that are subject and object of secrecy and confidentiality, but also because many Calabrians have chosen to enroll in Masonic lodges based in other parts of Italy. This evidently increases the degree of impenetrability. With the "Santa" the 'ndrangheta opens up to compromise with the deviated powers of the institutions. The "Saint" comes into contact with Freemasonry, or rather enters Freemasonry, through compliant lodges.
It would be a serious mistake to believe, however, that these references exhaust the links between the 'ndrangheta and the more or less deviated masonry, as if they were datable a few decades ago. For the 'ndrangheta the alliance went beyond a mere utilitarian relationship, to become a strategic alliance through which it achieved that invisibility and impunity which, on closer inspection, represent the essential characteristics through which it obtained the current position of supremacy and diffusion.

This stuff is so interesting, whether Ndragheta, CN or Camorra. The involvement of the Mason, lends to the Mafioso, in the context of Machiavelli, the criminal= the prince. In the hardest of core, the mafiosa, the criminal=princess.

The Mafiosi=Prince & Princess or King & Queen. A marriage of sorts.

Examples that I was given, Matteo Messina= Prince

Salvatore Riina and Ninetta Bagarella = King & Queen

Not in a royal court, like England 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿. Rather, in a Sacred Royal Criminal Court.. IE. Roma itself...lives a Caesar does... type of things.

Denaro does have a Prince of Darkness, Machiavelli persona, as Diabolik. The marriage of Riina and Bagarella was put together by Leggio to start, who knows what it really meant to them.

I believe every Ndragheta at one point swear blood to the AA Michael, it’s prevalent through the belief system. Is the Santa, St Michael?? Or is it something different??

Thanks for this info!!

Napoli coach, Gennaro Gattuso, has been linked to money laundering by the 'Ndrangheta clan of Desio, in Lombardy. However the accusations go towards a probable dismissal.

Is Pasquale Claudio Locatelli considered an 'Ndrangheta member?

I remember reading in ZeroZeroZero about him, it mentioned that he didn't belong to a clan and was more of a broker & intermediary.

However, various articles mentioned that he's a Camorrista...? Was he of Neapolitan descent? Or a Camorra member? An 'Ndrangheta member? Or?

https://www.guelphmercury.com/news-...alian-drug-lord-on-the-run-for-21-years/

(Also posting this in the Camorra thread)

Locatelli is one of those brokers, like Pannunzi, Assisi, Bruno Carbone, Paolo Lumia, Cornegliani, Fabrizio Fabietti, who work for several groups and are not made members, he was born in Almenno San Bartolomeo in the province of Bergamo. Locatelli also worked with the Montreal Mafia.

That was my understand as well...curious what made those articles name him as a Camorrista? Just misinformation? Maybe the investigators thought he was in the Camorra at the time?

Thanks Hollander

Important operation of the State Police carried out this morning in Cosenza. 45 arrests, people belonging to an armed association aimed at trafficking and dealing in drugs in the municipalities of the Esaro Valley headed by people linked to the 'ndrangheta cosentina.
At the head of the partnership, according to investigators, there are two cousins, Roberto and Antonio Presta, aged 58 and 43, close relatives of Franco Presta, considered the superboss of the 'Ndrangheta in the northern part of Calabria and detained in life imprisonment.
The Presta cousins ​​would have dealt with the sale of cocaine, heroin and hashish purchased in the province of Reggio Calabria.

How powerful is the Pesce family of Rosarno & San Ferdinando these days? It seems that they suffered a lot of arrests in recent years, and had many assets confiscated by the State. Is it likely that other families affiliated with this 'ndrine, such as the Pantano's, have taken over the leading roles?

The teenager who was chained in a hole by the Italian mafia for 2.5 years
At the age of nineteen, Carlo was abducted by the 'Ndrangheta. "I cried and screamed as loud as I could, but nobody heard me."
By Niccolò Carradori
February 13, 2020, 12:01 pm
ILLUSTRATION BY MASSIMILIANO MARZUCCO .

On January 25, 1988, nineteen-year-old Carlo Celadon was home alone in the evening. He lived in Arzignano, a village in northeastern Italy, and was eating alone. His father Candido, a successful entrepreneur, was on vacation with his sister, and his older brother was on a honeymoon. At one point, four armed men broke into the house. They tied Carlo, threw him in the trunk of their car and drove away. It was the start of the longest kidnapping ever in Italy.

The four men were members of the 'Ndrangheta, a powerful Mafia organization from the southern Calabria region. The 'Ndrangheta plays an important role in the global drug trade (especially in the field of cocaine), with an annual turnover estimated at 44 billion euros . Before they reached this position, they earned their money by abducting people from rich families and asking for ransom. From the late 1960s to the early 1990s, they kidnapped nearly 700 people.

Italian journalist Pablo Trincia reconstructed Carlo's story for an episode of the Italian podcast Buio - that means "dark." "This period marked a turning point in the rise of Mafia organizations," Trincia says on the phone. "The 'Ndrangheta had developed an entire kidnapping system, with the proceeds invested in illegal activities that generated even more profit, such as real estate and drug smuggling."

After Carlo was kidnapped, the car drove for 17 hours without stopping to Aspromonte in Calabria, the home of the 'Ndrangheta. There he was chained and left in a small excavated hole in the ground, with only a bag of bread. Because Carlo was following the news, he knew that abductions like this could take six months because it takes a lot of time to negotiate and settle the payment. "I assumed a long agony awaited me," he recalls in the podcast.

Before Carlo was kidnapped, he sat watching the news with his father once in the evening, and a message came along about an abducted person who was released because ransom was paid. He asked his father if he would do the same if he were ever kidnapped, but he shook his head. No, his father would never pay that money. "I was afraid he would let me die," says Carlo.

In fact, his father immediately tore back home because he was willing to save his son. His family received fake phone calls for days from people pretending to have kidnapped Carlo. They waited three months in fear, until the real kidnappers finally made contact. A man who called himself Agip asked Carlo's five billion lire, which would now be 2.6 million euros.

Meanwhile, Carlo knew nothing. In the first months he was scared to death by the kidnappers, who tried to convince him that his father refused to pay. They had him write letters to his father, begging to help him, but they were never actually sent. When Candido asked if they could prove that Carlo was still alive, they gave a soundtrack on which his son accused him of leaving him, and he only cared about money.

After that first telephone conversation, the case came under the prosecutor Tonino De Silvestri. "There were two options," De Silvestri explains in the podcast. "Some felt that the family's ability should be frozen [to put pressure on the 'Ndrangheta to withdraw their claim], and that all contact should be avoided. Others suggested leaving it to the family. ”They opted for a middle way: the assets were frozen, but the family would negotiate with the kidnappers. If they paid the money, the police would arrest them.

Months passed and all the while Carlo remained signed in the gap. "Mice came for the food, so I pulled back in a corner," he says in the podcast. “I put a piece of cheese under a glass, and when a mouse came in, I squeezed its head off. Snakes have also come in twice. If they would bite me and I get infected, my kidnappers would never have taken me to a hospital. "I cried and screamed as loud as I could, but nobody heard me."

At one point, Candido and Agip made an appointment to pay the money. Candido followed his instructions and brought the agreed amount, but Carlo was nowhere in sight. The police followed the men who had picked up the money to a small house, and arrested five people there. But there was no trace of either the money or Carlo.

Shortly before that, the kidnappers had moved him to a cave in the forest, and from that moment the communication stopped for seven months. Carlo's family feared he was no longer alive. After a while, Agip contacted them again and asked for another five billion lire. His tone became coarser. "If you don't want to pay, just say it," he told Candido. "Then we'll just give you his head."

Months later an appointment was made again. Candido had managed to get the amount down to two billion lire (around one million euros). On the morning of May 4, 1990, 831 days after his abduction, Carlo was finally released . "They took me to a highway and put me down on the ground," he said. A driver saw him and called the police. Carlo had lost 30 kilos and was unable to get up. He refused to talk to his father on the phone because he still thought he had been detained for so long because he had not wanted to pay anything.

"What particularly touched me about Carlo Celadon's story is that he didn't even go completely crazy," says Trincia. “He spent two and a half years there, while he could only count how many seconds passed. And all the while he thought his family had left him to his fate, and that he could be killed any time. "

According to the Italian scientific journal for criminology, abductions for organized crime groups are not only a source of income, but also a way to scare people and make the authorities look helpless. Because the 'Ndrangheta distributes part of its revenue among poor villages in Aspromonte, it has a loyal network, which makes it very difficult to expose the members.

Trincia says the authorities succeeded in arresting Agip a few years after Carlo's release. “When the police listened to telephone conversations, his voice was recognized. It was pure luck, and he turned out to be just one of many intermediaries. ”The other kidnappers have never heard of anything again, and the same goes for the billions of lira they have put in their pockets.

Interests of the 'ndrangheta in Umbria, investigations concluded for 96 people
February 19, 2020

96 people to whom the DDA of Catanzaro notified the notice of conclusion of the preliminary investigations in the context of the "Infectio" investigation which on 12 December last led to the execution of 23 arrests, twenty in prison and three to house arrest , and the seizure of assets for 10 million euros.

The charges contested by the suspects are, for various reasons, mafia association, criminal association aimed at trafficking drugs, possession and concealment of illegal weapons, extortion, threats, private violence and criminal association aimed at the commission of a series of crimes of accounting or economic-financial nature which had as their objective fraud against the banking system.

The notice of conclusion of the investigations, signed by the deputy prosecutors Domenico Guarascio, Paolo Sirleo, Antonio De Bernardo and Andrea Giuseppe Buzzelli, explores what emerged in May 2019 on the occasion of the " Malapianta " operation regarding the illegal activities of the gangs of ' ndrangheta of San Leonardo di Cutro (Mannolo, Zoffreo and Trapazzo) and their projection in Umbria, where they would have implanted a lucrative drug traffic even with the complicity of exponents of Albanian crime, altering, through extortion, free competition in execution of construction works.

The gangs were also active in favor of candidates for local administrative consultations. The alleged criminal activities would have been agreed with the Grande Aracri di Cutro gang, on which the San Leonardo faction depends.

'Ndrangheta, the boss Condello's lawyer: "The Ros offered me 10 billion for his capture"
by Francesco Tiziano - February 21 2020

Ten billion lire to get to the capture of Pasquale Condello "the supreme", the boss of the 'Ndrangheta Reggina considered among the absolute top of the "City" mandamento.

A proposal put forward by one of the Carabinieri del Ros, the leading intelligence of the Arma who actually on the evening of February 18, 2008 found the impregnable in a villa on the outskirts of Pellaro. A proposal received - and never taken into consideration - by the lawyer Antonio Marra, the criminal lawyer from Reggio Calabria who is accused in the "Gotha" trial.

In 2014 Dutch authorities started to notice 'strange movements' of Italian nationals of Calabrian origin, who on the borders with Germany had opened a growing number of businesses such as bars and cafes. Linked to the San Luca families.

The alliance to stop the clans in Germany and Holland

https://www.corrieredellacalabria.i...evano-il-caffe-nel-bar-della-ndrangheta/

The operation is called "European 'Ndrangheta Connection" and the investigations are still going on.

"The advantage of this investigation - according to the chief prosecutor of Reggio Calabria, Giovanni Bombardieri. - is that there has been coordination, collaboration between different authorities and judicial police in different European countries". The investigation under the aegis of Eurojust allowed to obtain great results never achieved before at European level, with numerous arrests and seizures of large quantities of drugs.

The suspects are of different nationalities: Italian, Turkish, Dutch, Moroccan and German. The various origins of those arrested also make us understand that in Germany the 'Ndrangheta is now a fully operational international criminal organization. "The 'ndrangheta - underlines Bombardieri -, as it happened many years ago in Northern Italy, presented itself with financial investments. The danger of this criminal organization was not felt because it did not present its completely illegal face. Today the 'ndrangheta has its full danger because it is delocalizing its criminal activities ".

According to Bombardieri the 'Ndrangheta now operates more in Germany than in Italy also because German legislation is still very lacking in the fight against the mafias.

'Ndrangheta, Alvaro clan also commanded in Australia: police operation in Reggio Calabria, 65 arrests !!

The investigations of the mobile team revealed that the top representatives of the Sant’Eufemia d’Aspromonte venue sat at the tables where important decisions were made regarding the Australian venue. Some of them had even gone to Australia in the past to resolve disputes related to the stripping of a member who was sanctioned for a neglect but not expelled from the ranks of the ‘Ndrangheta. The investigation allowed investigators, led by Francesco Rattà, to monitor some summits during which the suspects referred to the positions and grades of the ‘ndrangheta (such as the “saint”, “Camorra”, “evangelist”, “Sgarrista”, “local chief”, “accountant”), at ceremonies, the formation of a new egg, the creation of a new place in Sant’Eufemia d’Aspromonte with the hoped for legitimization of the Polsi crime and independence from the Alvaro who, however, continue to control the neighboring country.

Calabria: the relations of the center-right with the clans of the 'ndrangheta

https://engnews24h.com/calabria-the-relations-of-the-center-right-with-the-clans-of-ndrangheta/

Cold Case: Anti-mafia police in Cosenza on Friday arrested two men considered "important figures in organised crime" in the area, in connection with a murder that took place nearly 40 years ago. Mario Pranno, 64, and Francesco Cicero, 59, are suspected of involvement in the November 1981 murder of business owner Santo Nigro, who was killed in his shop. Investigators said Nigro's killing was ordered by the heads of the Perna-Pranno clan of the 'Ndrangheta mafia, for refusing to pay extortion.

Mario Pranno is a historical figure of the organized crime of Cosenza . He was sentenced with a final sentence for the murder of a child, Pasqualino Perri, 11 years old, which took place in a restaurant in Rende in 1978 and for the double murder of the brothers Stefano and Giuseppe Bartolomeo in 1991. The Bartolomeo were barred in a fishmonger and then buried in Sila. Their bodies have never been found.

Francesco Cicero is the brother of the boss Domenico serving a life sentence, currently detained at 41 bis.

The 'ndrangheta in the premises of the Milanese nightlife, the businessman Scarcella arrested: he has to serve 5 years and a month.
Flavio Scarcella, the 48-year-old entrepreneur is the link between the gangs and the security activity in the nightlife clubs. Scarcella, who at the time was free pending the appeal court's decision, was taken yesterday to his apartment by the agents of the mobile team.
Among the 11 defendants (all on trial with abbreviated rite), three had to answer for mafia association. In addition to Scarcella there were Agostino Catanzariti (sentenced to 14 years) and his son Saverio (8 years). Scarcella was head of the company SCF Security which was responsible for providing security personnel for some Milanese discos to which, according to the magistrates, "full-field protection" was provided through "a sort of extortion-bribe".
