Italian police arrested 54 people
in three Italian regions in a sweep against a top clan in the
Calabrian 'Ndrangheta mafia Tuesday.
Police said the Mole' clan had a "significant arms trade
with Eastern Europe as well as huge drugs trafficking with North
Africa".
They said the clan reinvested the proceeds in "large
swathes of the legal economy in Calabria, Lazio and Umbria".
Police seized assets worth some 25 million euros in the
operation.
