At dawn, Carabinieri carried out a precautionary operation in the Caivano and Casoria area involving 34 people allegedly connected to the Angelino clan.

The measure was issued by the preliminary-investigations judge in Naples at the request of the Naples District Anti-Mafia Directorate. The people involved are described in the available reports as seriously suspected, and the case concerns investigative allegations, not final convictions.

What happened

According to reports from Il Mattino, la Repubblica, and InfoOggi, the operation targeted 34 people in the Caivano and Casoria area.

The operation was conducted by the Carabinieri Investigative Unit of Castello di Cisterna together with operational sections from the Caivano and Casoria companies.

The allegations as reported

The reported allegations include:

  • armed camorra-type criminal association
  • association aimed at drug trafficking
  • extortion
  • possession of drugs for dealing

The reports also mention the aggravating circumstance of the mafia method as part of the allegations.

How to read the allegations at this stage

The available reports describe the 34 people as seriously suspected or allegedly connected to the Angelino clan. These are allegations at the investigation stage.

No final judicial outcome has been reported. A precautionary measure is not a final conviction, and the reports do not establish individual responsibility.

What has not been released

The reports reviewed do not provide:

  • the names of the 34 people
  • the individual custody measures applied to each person
  • the alleged role attributed to each suspect
  • the duration of the investigation or the evidence underlying each charge
