Three thousand marijuana plants have been discovered and seized by the Guardia di Finanza in Roccaforte del Greco. The financial police, who operated with the helicopters of the Air Section of Lamezia Terme, have identified the plantation of cannabis of the "skunk" type, with shrubs in some parts more than two meters high, in a soil half hidden by a dense bush. The quantity of seized marijuana, from which more than 1,500 kilograms of narcotic substance could have been obtained, once it had been placed on the market, would have yielded over 10 million euro.

An operation by the Carabinieri of Reggio Calabria is under way for the execution of 13 precautionary custody orders against entrepreneurs and alleged 'ndranghetisti. The investigations, coordinated by the DDA of Reggio Calabria, according to the investigators, would have allowed to ascertain the systematic infiltration of the Calabrian gangs in the works necessary for the construction of wind farms in the provinces of Reggio Calabria, Catanzaro, Crotone and Vibo Valentia.
