When Antimophi police drove up on Tuesday in the Sicilian Mafia, their main goal was to stop their reloading and the creation of a new governing body or dome.
But what came out of their wide investigation is an organized criminal group that should adapt to modern realities and show nostalgia for higher ambitions of the past.
They do not produce Mafionov, as before, Giancarla Raman told an employee in a conversation before he was shot a year ago.
Despite the obvious longing for the crimes of the past, the mafia in Sicily remains the force with which it is necessary to be considered, the prosecutor for the fight against the Mafi Mauricio de Lussia: “The Nostra is alive and present.”
Investigators have shown that the new generation of gangs of the chiefs took the use of encrypted mobile phones and thousands of micro-SIM cards that smuggled to prison.
Thus, they sought to avoid eavesdropping, focusing on addiction, money laundering and gambling on the Internet.
Cosa Nostra Sicily even started working with other gangs, including the notorious and much greater “Ndranghata in mainland Italy.
Of the 181 arrest warrants, which were filed with Sicilian gangster suspects in four constituencies of the capital in Palermo, 33 were for convicted figures who were already in prison.
The National Prosecutor of the Mafi Giovanni Melila said that, despite all the repressions, the prison system was on the mercy of the mafia.
The study found that one gangster was able to observe how he had beaten, which he ordered from the inside of the prison through video links.
The mafia became confident in the encrypted messaging platform that used text messages, voice notes and images.
But a year ago, the mistake installed in the house of one gangster recorded it, and another person who complained about the connection that descends into an encrypted chat. When they tried to restore the link, the names of several mafia figures were mentioned aloud.
Sicily’s authorities have heard every word.
The Prime Minister Georgia Meloni praised the operation of the Italian military police and promised that the fight against the mafia “did not stop or stop.”
Half of the arrested -in the 20th and 30s.
At the end of 2023, Giancarla Raman, who considered the future mafia figure in the area of Brankachio in the heart of the capital of Sicily, Palermo, complained about the decline of the crowd and the poor quality of new recruits.
“Low level, today they arrest someone, and when it becomes a turn, they arrest another … an unhappy low level,” he said, saying on the phone.
He overheard, telling the novice Mafios to go to school, to meet with doctors and lawyers, as well as to learn lessons, looking at the trilogy of the “godfather” about the fictional family of Carleon Gangster.
Today’s mafia was granted the sale of small bars, and others were now moving, he complained: “That day are those people who, unfortunately, come.”
The novel was killed and his associate was injured in February 2024 as a result of an attack, which is obviously related to the extortion in gambling. This murder made the authorities to make further arrests in the field of Mafia Raman.
Cosa Nostra is a shadow of the notorious organized criminal mafia, which it was destroyed by a wave of campaigns over the last 30 years.
But despite the desire for a more modernized mafia, many old practices and codes remain.
“Cosa nostra is like marriage. You are married to this wife and stay with her all your life,” said one mafios.
The clear consequence was that there was no left Nostra.
