Signorelli and the “daje” for the acquittal of Elvis: who is “God”, the narcos friend of Diabolik who with the Albanians of Ponte Milvio “wants Rome”

“But did they acquit Elvis? Fantastic dajee”. In the chat Paolo Signorelli rejoices in Roman dialect. “Yesss”, replies Fabrizio Piscitelli on the other end of the phone. “God” had vanished in December 2018 for the assassination of “Federichetto” De Meo, killed with five gunshots placed between the head and chest on 24 September 2013.

“But did they acquit Elvis? Fantastic dajee”. In the chat Paolo Signorelli he rejoices in Roman dialect. “Yesss,” he replies on the other end of the phone Fabrizio Piscitelli. “God” had vanished it in December 2018 for the murder of “Federichetto” De Meo, killed with five gunshots placed between the head and chest on 24 September 2013. Giancarlo Orsini, a long-term contract killer, had confessed to the murder and the instigator indicated Elvis DemceAlbanian by birth but Roman up until the point, who by removing the 37-year-old from Velletri “intended to strengthen his dominance on the drug dealing square.” The accusation had held up in the first instance, but was acquitted on appeal. And in the chats published by Republic the minister’s spokesperson Francesco Lollobrigida celebrated the event on the phone with “Diabolik“, the neo-fascist leader of the Irreducible from the Lazio who in turn was allegedly shot dead on 7 August 2019 in Rome on a bench in the Acquedotti park.

“God”, “Caesar”, “Spartaco”, he calls himself in the coded chats used to evade wiretaps. Started from Velletriin the words of a member “we want to take Rome” from the square of Milvian Bridge, the heart of the capital’s nightlife, a territory that had once belonged to Diabolik. Having grown up in the shadow of the latter, Demce had followed in his footsteps until aiming to take his place after his death. The meteoric rise exploded a year later, in 2020. If that summer he ordered 100 kilos of hashish, three months later he bought over a ton. “You sell four kilos at sea, three in northern Rome, eight in Tor Sapienza…”, he orders his subordinates. Also that year – in the investigation of the Rome District Anti-Mafia Directorate on Daniele Muscarielloproducer accused of laundering clan money in the cinema, – the bugs placed on the terrace of the house where he was under house arrest confirmed “the high criminal profile of Demce Elvis who emerged as the head of a criminal group fully operational aimed at carrying out quickly, through the supply of large quantities of narcotics and debt collection with violent waysthe liquidity necessary to consolidate the criminal strength of the organization”.

An organization which, according to magistrates, has relations with the Camorra. With the same bugs “a series of conversations with Muscariello Daniele (and with other members of the Demce organization who referred to the latter) were intercepted which made it possible to ascertain the close connection between Muscariello himself and the D’Amico-Mazzarella Camorra clan operating in the city of Naples and in particular in the area of ​​San Giovanni a Teduccio”. Who chooses Demce for a particular job: the kidnapping for the purpose of extorting an entrepreneur, “guilty of not having paid a tangent relating to the acquisition of a contract in the municipality of L’Aquila, obtained thanks to the interest of the clan D’Amico”. And “Cesare” accepts because the operation, notes the judge for preliminary investigations, “in addition to the certainty of receiving a huge economic return, would also have allowed him to regain control of the management of the drug dealing squares operating in the city of Velletri, controlled by him until the day of his arrest” and ended up in the hands of his rival Ermal Arapaj, known as “Ufo”.

Low profile and tentacles everywhere, the creed of the Albanian who became king of Rome. “D’emo lives the life of reserved, shy narcos,” he says when intercepted to a friend, “I make lunches and dinners outside of Rome, in Rome I have to be a ghost“. Until July 2022, when he is arrested for the attempted murder of Alessio Marzani, a 45-year-old wounded in a gunshot on 22 October 2020 in Acilia, together with Alessandro Corvesi, former professional footballer, and Matteo Costacurta, known as the “Prince” due to his noble origins. For those facts, on 11 January 2024 the court in Piazzale Clodio sentenced him to 18 and a half years old of prison.
