REGGIO CALABRIA It is underway in Reggio Calabria an operation against the ‘ndrangheta conducted by the carabinieri of the provincial command for the execution of 12 precautionary custody orders, 11 in prison and one under house arrest. The measures were issued by the district investigating judge at the request of the DDA, directed by Giovanni Bombardieri, who coordinated the investigative activity. The crimes charged to the recipients of the ordinances are mafia-type criminal association, extortion, fictitious registration of goods and arms trafficking. The investigation, coordinated by the deputy prosecutor Walter Ignazitto, made it possible to reconstruct the dynamics and structures of the Ndrangheta gang that controls illicit activities in the “Arangea” district, in the southern outskirts of Reggio Calabria. The Carabinieri managed to reconstruct, in particular, the methods followed by the criminal group to impose extortion on numerous entrepreneurs in various sectors. The details of the operation will be illustrated by the magistrates of the DDA and the carabinieri during a press conference at 10 am in the headquarters of the provincial command of the force.
