The funeral of the mafia Salvatore Scoppa canceled
The funeral of Salvatore Scoppa shot during a family party last weekend is canceled. It was the mafia murderer's wife in Laval who made the announcement on her Instagram account.
According to what TVA Nouvelles has learned, the police believe that the family may have been warned of certain "dangers".
The funeral of the 49-year-old was due to take place Monday in Little Italy in Montreal.
Missed attempt
The mafia of Laval had already been the target of an attack in the parking lot of a Terrebonne restaurant in February 2017, but had escaped with an injury to one arm.
The accused in this case, Frederick Silva, a notorious hitman, was arrested on February 22 following a two-year manhunt. He is waiting for his trial.
