25-year-old Luigi Puca, son of the boss currently detained Pasquale Puca called "o 'minorenne", historical head of the Puca clan active in the Neapolitan area, between Sant'Antimo and neighboring municipalities, was arrested by the Giugliano carabinieri

The Neapolitan Public Prosecutor's Office, together with a building contractor already in prison, Giuseppe D'Aponte, accuses him of extortion aggravated by the method and the mafia purposes against another builder in the area in serious economic difficulties, forced to deliver to the two checks and bills for over 50 thousand euros against an initial debt of just 11 thousand.

Money that D'Aponte had poured into the current account of the victim who, with authorization, had used them to settle slopes. A few days later, however, D'Aponte told the victim that it was not his money but that of the clan, which now demanded exorbitant interest. At this point, the victim reported everything to the police.

Italian police on Wednesday arrested 26 people on suspicion of dealing drugs for the Naples-based Camorra. Those arrested allegedly bought cocaine, via brokers, from the 'Ndrangheta of Rosarno and Gioia Tauro, police said.
The D'Alessandro clan had claimed a monopoly over the drugs trade in a wide swathe of the Naples area including the entire Stabiese area (Castellammare di Stabia, Santa Maria La Carità, Vico Equense) and in the Sorrento peninsula and then, thanks to the strategic alliance with the Afeltra-Di Martino clan, also in the Lattari Mountains area.

FI Senator Cesaro probed in Camorra case, 3 brothers arrested
Lawmaker and siblings under investigation over alleged Mob-politics collusion

(ANSA) - Rome, June 9 - A Senator for Silvio Berlusconi's centre-right opposition Forza Italia (FI) party, Luigi Cesaro, was placed under investigation Tuesday and his three brothers arrested in a probe into the Neapolitan Camorra mafia and politics.
Antimo Cesaro was taken into detention in prison while Aniello and Raffaele Cesaro were placed under house arrest.
ROS security police served 59 arrest warrants across the Naples area in relation to the probe. Those arrested are accused of external complicity in mafia association.
Among those arrested are allegedly leading members of the Puca, Verde and Ranucci clans at Sant'Antimo north of Naples.
Police said they had uncovered a thick web of links between politicians, businessmen and criminal circles.
The four Cesaro brothers are suspected of colluding with Camorra members and Mob-linked businesmen, police said.


Camorra boss Cutolo's bid for house arrest rejected
Condition compatible with jail, COVID infection unlikely - court

(ANSA) - Rome, June 10 - A Bologna surveillance court on Wednesday rejected former Camorra boss Raffaele Cutolo's plea to be allowed out from prison to house arrest for health reasons.
The former charismatic leader of the Nuova Camorra Organizzata, 78, is serving multiple life terms for murder.
He will stay in jail at Parma under the harsh 41 bis regime for high-security inmates including top mafiosi.
According to the Bologna judges, his condition is not incompatible with prison detention and he does not run the risk of contracting COVID-19.
They also noted that he remains a "symbol" for the Naples Mob and has retained his charisma.
Justice Minister Alfonso Bonafede recently survived two no-confidence votes after hundreds of mafia bosses were released to house arrest for health reasons linked to the virus crisis.
He hastily passed decrees aimed at getting them back in jail and some have already returned from house arrest.

Camorra, the police chief: "A gangster mutation is underway in Naples"
Gabrielli comments on the alarm launched by the prefect Valentini in an interview with "Repubblica": "The disarticulation of the old criminal families has triggered anarchic forces"

July 15, 2020

"In the face of a significant disarticulation of some Camorra families, the loss of social control has left free a series of anarchoid forces, no longer responding to the logic of underworld families. In this context, the most youthful groups have given rise to the phenomenon of gangsterism which characterized and is characterizing the city and the hinterland in this period.
Obviously all this does not mean that the fight against the Camorra should not see the word end, but at this moment this violence which is a cause of great concern for citizens and is translated through the use of weapons, is something that questions us and pledges ". Police chief Franco Gabrielli said in reply - on the sidelines of the Ammaturo Prize in progress in the Neapolitan capital - to those who asked him to comment on the alarm launched on the 'Republic' of the prefect of Naples Marco Valentini on the spread of weapons among young people.

"A prefect never speaks in vain but for consolidated and acquired data - underlined Gabrielli - and as provincial safety authority he has the pulse of the situation. I believe that the city, like the whole country, is recovering after the lockdown and after a period of compression of the crime due to the fact that people were at home and that predatory crimes were difficult to carry out ".

"In this context - he added - as we had already noticed before Covid, in a country where blood crimes are increasingly marginal, the Neapolitan and Foggia realities have represented some exceptions in recent years in the sense that in spite of of the strongly compressed trend of other parts of the country, in the Neapolitan and Foggiano areas continued to shoot and die killed even if in smaller percentages. And this in the Neapolitan reality has had a gangsteristic mutation ".
"Therefore at this moment - he concluded - there is a particular attention to the phenomena of widespread crime, precisely because the lockdown period has led to a compression of the criminal phenomena and now these phenomena are resuming with a higher violence than the previous one".

A real bomb hits the Neapolitan Camorra. Marco Di Lauro would have dissociated himself from the Camorra. Dissociation which does not mean repentance, but which means a clean break with the past, that is, his will to have nothing more to do with the Camorra world. A way where Marco Di Lauro was born and raised, to become first the scion of the clan then the ruler and head set until his capture.

Marco Di Lauro was arrested on Saturday 2 March 2019 after fourteen years on the run. He is locked up in the Sassari prison under the harsh prison regime. A life sentence already hangs on him for the murder of the innocent Attilio Romano and several trials still pending.

The Italian mafias are doing all they can to prevent coronavirus from harming their business — including orchestrating violence at anti-lockdown protests. The mob’s drugs trade was hit hard by lockdown restrictions, but economic chaos presents opportunities.

According to Italian authorities, the Camorra planned and directed demonstrations in Naples that descended into violence and attacks on police on Friday. Similar protests have taken place across the country for the past four days, with bar and restaurant owners expressing concerns that tighter measures, brought in by the government to counter a surge in coronavirus cases in the country, will destroy their businesses.

While the economic turmoil caused by the crisis has presented opportunities for the mafia to snap up stricken firms, curfews and lockdown restrictions are bad news, because increased police checks curtail the mob’s freedom to operate. Police estimate that with the closure of nightlife in Italy, the Camorra’s drugs revenue will be hit by as much as 60 percent.

"Almost all fruit and vegetables in Italy come from the Camorra"
During a visit to the seaside resort of Ostia, journalist Rick Nieman learns that almost all the fruit and vegetables eaten in Italy come from the Camorra (Neapolitan mafia).

“The Italian fruit and vegetable companies are all legal companies, but in the hands of different organized crime clans,” Augusto tells Rick. "You can just leave your car open here because the mafia does not steal cars. Selling fruit and vegetables is much more profitable because of the high turnover rate and low personnel costs."

"90% of the sellers are North Africans and they are the workers of the Camorra. The mafia has changed in recent years from a violent organization to a company operating in the upper world," said Augusto.

New Clan Partenio, 14 arrests:
exchange vote for the boss's son

The suspects are considered seriously suspected, for various reasons, of several crimes, such as mafia-type criminal association, extortion, political-mafia electoral exchange, disturbed freedom of enchantments, material falsehood, fraud, fraudulent transfer of values ​​and money laundering.

From the investigative results, a context of expansion of the criminal interests of the Camorra group in the sectors of auctions and real estate acquisitions emerged, combined with a strong interest in influencing the political and administrative life of the city of Avellino.

The activity documented the promise of votes on the occasion of the elections of the Municipal Council of Avellino in June 2018 by members of the Genovese-Galdieri clan, against a candidate for councilor - later elected - son of an inmate boss, belonging to the same group, in exchange for the reassignment of the management of a sports center located in Avellino.

There is also the urban myth that the Camorra fixed the '87/88 season, when Napoli with Maradona lost the scudetto to Milan squandering a 5-point lead advantage over the team of Gullit and Van Basten.
