The Direzione Investigativa Antimafia carried out a decree no. 09/2023 R.G.M.P. Based on this order the Court in Genoa – Preventive Measures Section, at the outcome of the first-degree hearing, ordered the confiscation of assets owned by a 73-year-old man originally from Terlizzi (BA), but long established in Genoa.
Sometimes this person was in ” affairs ” with members of organized crime, and is the owner of several companies, operating in the field of processing and sale of iron and scrap metal, often in the name of front men. He was recognized as being “socially dangerous”, having been, over the years, involved in lucrative crimes, such as fraudulent bankruptcy and various tax offenses (including failure to declare, tax fraud and invoices for non-existent transactions), which enabled the subject to accumulate considerable illicit wealth as early as the early 1980s.
The investigation carried out by the staff of the Direzione Investigativa Antimafia, by in-depth and detailed asset checks, made it possible to successfully present to the prosecuting Judicial Authority high-profile investigative inputs, which reconstructed the assets illegally acquired over the years by the person.
The Prosecutor of Genoa and the Director of the DIA jointly signed the confiscation request, including 2 luxury apartments (in Genoa and Viareggio), a car and several financial relations, with an estimated value of approximately 900,000 euros.
Today’s operation is part of the institutional activities aimed at attacking the illicit wealth acquired and linked, directly or indirectly, to criminal associations, acting daily to protect and safeguard the healthy part of the national financial fabric in the legal interest of the country’s economic productivity.
