There is a new 'ndrangheta pentito in Vibo Valentia. Bartolomeo Arena, 43, who has decided to collaborate with the Dda of Catanzaro a few months ago and helped the Carabinieri to shed light on the shooting in Piscopio in September in which Salvatore Battaglia was killed and Giovanni Zuliani wounded.
Six precautionary measures carried out today. Bartolomeo Arena, last May, had become untraceable together with Antonio Pardea, 33, also from Vibo Valentia. The two then returned to the city. Bartolomeo Arena, close to the Lo Bianco clan of Vibo Valentia and then to the Andrea Mantella group, who also became a collaborator of justice in 2016, began to collaborate fearing for his life. His statements could lead to a true "judicial earthquake" on the city of Vibo Valentia.
