But in the face of the authorities' refusal, Del Balso reportedly made threatening remarks against the journalist alleged to have been heard by a police officer and a lawyer. One of these witnesses reportedly filed a complaint and Del Balso was arrested. He spent the night in cell and will be accused of death threats this morning.
Angry
According to our information, the mafioso is angry with the journalist since the broadcast of a report on September 13 in which it was alleged threats allegedly made by Del Balso to the owners of a pizzeria in Quebec, and which revealed even the presence of the mafioso in the Old Capital.
Del Balso, who was sentenced to 15 years as a penitentiary for gangsterism, cocaine import and trafficking after the Coliseum investigation, is on parole and has not yet completed his sentence. This case could result in his return to a penitentiary. If so, it would be the fourth time since he was released after serving two-thirds of his sentence in February 2016.
In May 2017, a stranger entered Del Balso's home in Laval, presumably to kill him, and threatened his wife and one of his sons with a gun. It would be because of threats to his life that the mafioso was invited to settle far from Montreal, for the rest of his sentence, which will end in about a year.
