arzano. Funeral services: Anti-Mafia ban also for Umberto Scafuro & Sons in Piazza Cimmino.
Still no procedure from the SUAP office for the revocation of the enabling titles. The news was already public knowledge as four other interdictions had been notified in the past weeks to four other companies called Scafuro & Ferone and related to each other.
Meanwhile, according to reports from citizens which still need to be verified, arzano it would always be the Scafuro and the Ferones who procure customers for agencies in Quarto, San Marcellino and Naples, which are constituted as real cartels. The umpteenth stop was ordered by the prefecture of Naples because the banned companies that operated until a few months ago in the funeral and sacred furnishings sector, would be considered close to the Amato-Pagano clan and the Casavatore boss, Ernesto Ferone.
The measure, in fact, would only be the epilogue of a larger and branched investigative activity of the same Government Palace led by the prefect Claudio Palomba and of journalistic reports. The funeral agencies, according to what has been learned, would have been managed by individuals closely related to the one who is considered a high-level referent of the Pagano clan and who through the funeral company Umberto Scafuro sas the only one still operating in the city, would have evaded the previous measure passed already in 2019 thanks to the false attestations of the former manager of the technical office and Suap who in addition to not starting the necessary verification checks, had certified the moral and anti-mafia requirements of the Scafuro and Ferone company thus becoming a determining reason also for the dissolution of the entity in 2109.
The funeral home affair has already seen a judicial earthquake hit the Municipality at the beginning of August, with the issuing of 7 notices of conclusion of preliminary investigations against officials, former municipal managers, traffic police and individuals linked to the Ferone clan. All are accused to varying degrees of the crimes of ideological forgery and in a public document in complicity, material forgery committed by a public official, abuse and omission in official acts for having favored funeral companies.
Meanwhile, some companies operate in the city and it would not be uncommon to witness their presence during funerals and the failure to verify the requirements (employees, means, premises) required by law directly at the company headquarters.
