Premier Giorgia Meloni hailed the huge
operation conducted by police on Tuesday in the Camorra
mafia-ridden town of Caivano near Naples, where two cousins aged
10 and 12 were allegedly raped by a group of youths recently.
"Today the operation to clean up Caivano's Parco Verde district
began," Meloni said via social media.
"The big operation launched at dawn this morning - for which I
thank the police involved - is just the start of the long path
that the government is committed to pursuing to restore law,
order and security and make the strong presence of the State
felt.
"And to lay down the foundations for social reconstruction and
the rebirth of the territory.
"(We will always be) fast and unhesitant against crime. Until
there are no more no-fly zones (to the State) in Italy".
Among the material confiscated in the dawn raids were 150
bullets, including some for Kalashnikovs, and an improvised
explosive device (IED)
