(ANSA) Rome, March 3 - Carabinieri paramilitary police
Tuesday arrested two men with criminal records on charges of
kidnapping the student son of a Calabrian mobster in Rome,
police said.
The two were identified as Rosario Marando and Geremia
Orlando Barbuto and their arrest followed that of another man,
Salvatore Ammazzagatti, arrested in May also on charges of
carrying out the daylight kidnapping of the 23-year-old student
Nov. 27, 2013.
Witnesses called police at the time when a group of men in
the Africano neighborhood near La Sapienza university bundled
the student into a car and took off at high speed, releasing him
a few hours later.
Police sources said that the incident was linked to a feud
between two clans of the 'Ndrangheta, the Calabrian version of
the mafia, in Reggio Calabria province - the Marando clan in
Plati and the Aquino Coluccio clan at Gioiosa Jonica.
The kidnapped man was the son of a member of the Coluccio
clan, said the sources.
