As you know their grandfather Domenico Violi was the head of the Violi clan in Sinopoli and these brothers belong to the same family/'ndrina.

During the investigation, the investigators reconstructed the network of supports on which Gigliotti could count in Calabria: among these, the most important was Franco Fazio, a relative of Gigliotti's wife, and the brothers Francesco and Carmine Violi, with which Fazio himself was in close relations. The Violi brothers, in turn, are relatives with members of the Alvaro gang. Fazio was therefore the trusted man of the restaurateur in Calabria and he was the one who contacted the subjects interested in buying drugs throughout the region. And among the main recipients of cocaine was, in fact, Francesco Violi. Among those arrested there is also a candidate for the municipalities of Lamezia There is also a candidate in the municipal elections of Lamezia Terme, scheduled for May 31, among those arrested in the investigation. Franco Fazio, 46, is a candidate on the list of the CDU who supports the candidate for mayor of Lamezia Terme of the center-right Mascaro in the next municipal elections. According to the investigators, the aspiring adviser is not just any type, but the operative arm of the drug trafficker Gregorio Gigliotti. Following Fazio, the investigators managed to rebuild a long series of contacts with the main Calabrian clans. The candidate councilor would be one of the main drug brokers, capable of making agreements with the men of the most powerful 'ndrine: the Violis of Sinopoli, the Berlingieri of Catanzaro, plus other exponents of the gangs. - See more at: http://www.rainews.it/dl/rainews/ar...0376410-9726-4ac0-b101-9cc22f011280.html
