05 September 2023
The Carabinieri of Venice with the help of the German police arrested the 44-year-old Valerio Salvatore Crivello in Keitum (Germany), allegedly linked to the 'Ndrangheta Scofano-Martella-La Rosa clan, wanted since November 2020, when he escaped the execution order for imprisonment issued by the Public Prosecutor's Office at the Catanzaro Court of Appeal following the final sentence to life imprisonment, with daytime isolation for two months. Crivello had been convicted of the murder aggravated by the mafia method of Pietro Serpa, committed on May 27, 2003 in Paola. At the time Crivello had managed to escape the arrest warrant by escaping from his parents' home in Scorzè (Venice), where he had been placed under house arrest with an electronic bracelet, pending the final sentence. Hence a manhunt that lasted almost three years,
