DIA SEIZED ASSETS WORTH 2 MILLION EUROS

The Direzione Investigativa Antimafia – Section of Salerno carried out a seizure decree issued by the Section Review and Preventive Measures of the Court in Salerno, following a joint proposal by the Public Prosecutor of the Court in Nocera Inferiore and the D.I.A. Director. This order referred to properties worth over 2 million euros linked to MONTELLA Carlo, currently detained due to a number of convictions for continued murder having more than one aggravating circumstance, camorra-type criminal association, sury, extortion and other offences.
The enforcement of this order represents the outcome of a successful, complex and in-depth investigation carried out by the D.I.A. Section of Salerno, aimed at proving the social dangerousness of the affected person and at identifying several properties and assets linked to the person.
Therefore, the asset-related investigations, carried out by the D.I.A.- Section of Salerno, assessed the disproportion between the assets owned and the income declared by the
affected party and his family. For this reason, the Court – Section Review and Preventive Measures in Salerno assessed on a precautionary basis the social dangerousness of the affected party due to his membership to the “Tempesta” camorra clan, belonging to the well-known criminal organization “Nuova Famiglia”, at that time dominant in the Nocera-Sarno area. His being socially dangerous was already ascertained by a number of final judgements for very serious offences and by a previous preventive measure of special
surveillance which was not carried out due to his being imprisoned.
The seizure order regarded a number of properties, among which a real estate complex (Parco Concetta), formed by several apartments, garages and not built-on areas located in Angri and another property (Villa Concetta C) located in Sant’Egidio del Monte Albino.
Furthermore, a seizure order for an equivalent value was issued amounting to approx 160.000 euros.
