Italian anti‑mafia seizures target Calabria entrepreneurs linked to 'Ndrangheta
The Guardia di Finanza in Crotone and other Italian anti‑mafia units carried out a series of asset seizures against entrepreneurs suspected of ties to 'Ndrangheta clans in Calabria. One operation, ordered by the Tribunal of Catanzaro, resulted in the confiscation of three properties and bank accounts worth more than €150,000 from a businessman active in electrical‑installation services, deemed to have accumulated wealth far exceeding his declared income. A separate seizure, ordered by the same tribunal, targeted assets valued at €2.7 million belonging to an entrepreneur linked to the Tegano crime family. Both actions were requested by the district anti‑mafia prosecutor and followed extensive financial investigations that uncovered disproportionate assets, alleged money‑laundering, and connections to crimes such as attempted extortion aggravated by mafia methods.
These measures are part of Italy’s broader strategy to disrupt the economic infiltration of organized crime and protect public revenues.
