Antonio Mele, 57, and Biagio Palumbo, 53 , were shot dead in a car in Naples Wednesday in an apparent Camorra hit. The ambush took place in the Miano quarter, local sources said.
Palumbo was Carlo Lo Russo right hand man in the golden age of the Lo Russos and Antonio Mele the strategist of the clan. Both were released a few months ago after many years of detention and currently considered close to the boss Pasquale Angellotti, also returned free for a long time. The Lo Russo brothers turned state's evidence.
