Italian political-mafia electoral exchange investigation

Overview

Former Marigliano mayor Antonio Carpino has begun serving a definitive prison sentence of 5 years and 4 months. The sentence follows an irrevocable conviction by the Court of Cassation regarding political-mafia electoral exchange.

Investigators established a network of illicit relationships between Carpino and criminal elements in the Pontecitra district, where electoral support was allegedly exchanged for money, economic interests, and promises of employment.
