The three main Italian mafia organizations in Germany count on 770 alleged affiliates. This is what the German government has announced in response to a question from the Greens, which the Faz newspaper has read.

The Calabrian 'Ndrangheta counts on over 505 affiliates, the mafia on 109 members, while the Camorra on 101, and 16 are members of the Apulian organized crime.

The 'Ndrangheta is considered by German security officials to be the most dangerous organization and is mainly represented in North Rhine Westphalia, Bavaria and Hesse. In 2016, the investigating authorities had a total of 550 affiliates, over 200 fewer.

This does not mean, according to the Berlin government, that the influence of organized crime has necessarily grown, but rather that the knowledge and mapping of Italian criminal groups in the host country has increased. "The increasing numbers are probably not yet the point of arrival, and we must do everything possible to shed more light on a field that is still obscure," says Irene Mihalic, spokesperson for the internal politics of the parliamentary group of the Greens in the Bundestag.
