National Anti-Mafia Prosecutor
Franco Roberti said Thursday that organised crime in Puglia
should not be considered less dangerous that other more famous
syndicates following an apparent mob hit in which four people
were killed Wednesday. "Puglia criminals, especially this wicked
form of crime in the province of Foggia, have been considered a
second-tier mafia for too long," Roberti told RAI radio. He said
that a 30-year feud between clans in the area had produced 300
murders and in 80% of cases the killer went unpunished.
