Italy's government needs "to
adopt" Calabria with a constellation of long term investments to
combat "deep penetration" of the southern region by
the'Ndrangheta crime gang, Anti-Mafia commission president Rosy
Bindi said Monday.
"The government must decide to adopt Calabria," Bindi said
during a visit to the northern city of Imperia, "It must do so,
reinforcing the police, providing enough magistrates but also
through economic and social policy".
The relationship between the 'ndrangheta and Calabrian
society is "a relationship of deep penetration and as such it
needs very lengthy work in which the state must commit itself to
the hilt," said Bindi, who recently visited Calabria.
"The state must decide to bring the 'ndrangheta to its
knees in Calabria and wherever it spreads its structure," she
said.
