Neofascists and Ndrangheta united by business: the investigation that reveals the traffics in the North
The maxi-investigation of Verona reveals the ever closer relationships between the ultra-right and the mafia environments. Who get rich at the expense of the state by taking advantage of the complicity of politics

"In the Mafia network there is no lack of "invisible" masonry, as in Calabria. When Professor Vallone boasts of being "master of the Mediterranean loggia of Crotone", Toffanin replies that the Calabrians have also opened "a loggia in Verona, in Borgo Trento", the neighborhood-good. And to act as a Masonic "temple guardian", who "has been controlling access for years", is a "marshal of the carabinieri", still unknown. The investigations would instead have identified another carabiniere, already in service to the anti-mafia, who warned Toffanin of the first stalking of the boss Antonio Giardino, even passing him a photo of him taken by the police. The same vigilante, in June 2016, had allowed the entire Mafia family to escape the first arrests for extortion and usury: they all ran away the night before."
