Italian police have seized some 30
million euros in assets from the Casamonica Roman crime family
and members of clans in the Calabria-based 'Ndrangheta mafia,
judicial sources said Thursday.
The seizure, made in May 2017, became an official
confiscation on Thursday, the sources said.
Among the assets seized are 10 properties in Calabria, Rome
and Ardea near Rome; 21 companies and businesses; 25 company
buildings and 24 motor vehicles, including luxury cars.
A number of bars and restaurants in Rome's historical centre
including near St Peter'sand in the trendy Trastevere district,
were among the properties confiscated.
Two car salesrooms were also seized in Rome.
Police said the Casamonicas had sealed a pact to enable the
Calabrian Mob to infiltrate the Italian capital's economic
fabric starting in the 1990s.
