Eight tonnes of cocaine have
been seized in Colombia in relation to an Italian probe into
drugs operations by the Calabrian 'Ndrangheta mafia,
investigators said Tuesday. Several other seizures of between 60
and 100 kilos each were conducted in Italy and other parts of
Europe, they said. "The operation confirms the privileged
relationship the 'Ndrangheta has with the South American Narcos,
with agreements in which roles mix and the great capacity to
manage sales in many regions," said Nicola Gratteri, the head of
the Catanzaro DDA anti-mafia department.
