Crumbling of the drug empire of Cosa Nostra, 101 arrests
CATANIA - The carabinieri of Catania, this morning, made a "clean sweep" of the entire military organization of Cosa Nostra that controls the drug trafficking in the San Giovanni Galermo area, where the mafia controlled 12 drug dealing squares.
The name hit by the raid is that of the "Nizza" group, which over the years has seen the two men of honor Daniele and Fabrizio Nizza at the top and then the young scion Andrea, captured after a long period of fugitive from the carabinieri. Today old and new guards end up in jail. In addition to the ordinances that will be delivered directly to the cell.
An impressive operation that took place this morning at dawn: over 400 Carabinieri of the Provincial Command of Catania in the field, who received the support of the soldiers of the other Sicilian provinces and of the specialized departments of the Carabinieri who are carrying out a precautionary custody order issued by the investigating judge of Catania, on input from the Dda, against 101 people under investigation, for various reasons, included mafia association, drugs and weapons.
