A 43-year-old criminal believed
close to a Bari mafia clan was shot dead in the Puglia city on
Monday.
Antonio Scaglioso has been linked in the past to the Piperis
Clan.
A woman was hit in the face and head with a baseball bat near
the scene of the murder.
The Puglia mafia, the Sacra Corona Unita (United Holy Crown,
SCU), is the fourth and smallest of Italy's four mafias.
The other three are 'Ndrangheta from Calabria, Cosa Nostra
from Sicily and the Camorra from Naples.
