(ANSA) - Rome, April 30 - Rome's Spada and Casamonica crime
families are "interchangeable mafia clans", the supreme Court of
Cassation said Tuesday.
Upholding a string of January arrests, the top appeals court
said "there is a strong family bond, interchangeable in their
roles and united by the common goal of committing various
crimes".
It said the two mafia gangs were active in several crime
sectors including protection rackets and extortion.
