Avellino's police headquarters has intensified preventive action aimed at conduct considered capable of leading to offences against people and public order, according to local press and official police bulletins.

The Anticrime Division of the Questura di Avellino is responsible for the activity. The measures reported are personal prevention measures — administrative or preventive interventions ordered by the Questore. They should not be presented as proof of criminal convictions.

What IrpiniaNews reported

IrpiniaNews reports that, in the period from 1 September to the date of its article, the Questore of Avellino issued:

  • 29 mandatory departure orders from the municipal area, known as fogli di via obbligatori
  • 19 oral warnings, or avvisi orali
  • 8 stadium bans, known as DASPO
  • 5 bans on access to crowded public places, known as D.A.C.Ur.
  • 17 warnings in domestic violence or stalking cases, known as ammonimenti
  • 2 proposals for special surveillance, or sorveglianza speciale

The precise end date of the period described as "from 1 September to today" was not stated in the available text of the IrpiniaNews report.

The sources do not identify the people subject to the measures or the outcomes of any related proceedings.

A separate official count for March 2026

A separate bulletin from the Questura di Avellino, dated 4 April 2026, gives a different, independently dated set of figures for March 2026 alone:

  • 10 ammonimenti
  • 20 avvisi orali
  • 14 fogli di via obbligatori
  • 3 DASPO
  • 5 D.A.C.Ur.

According to the Questura, the March measures were connected with alleged risks including violence, theft, fraud and drug dealing. The DASPO and D.A.C.Ur. measures were linked to prevention in places with high concentrations of people, including sporting venues.

How to read the numbers

The figures from IrpiniaNews and the 4 April Questura bulletin refer to different reporting periods and must not be added together. They show two snapshots of continuing preventive activity, not a single cumulative total.

Readers in Avellino and Irpinia should also distinguish prevention from prosecution: fogli di via, avvisi orali, DASPO, D.A.C.Ur., ammonimenti and proposals for sorveglianza speciale are intended to reduce the risk of further offences and disorder. They do not by themselves establish that a crime was committed or that a court has convicted anyone.

The available sources do not specify whether every measure reported by IrpiniaNews concerned the whole province of Avellino or specific municipalities.
