Vincenzo Di Lauro remains in prison, arrested by the Carabinieri of the ROS and the provincial command as part of an investigation by the Public Prosecutor's Office (deputy prosecutor Maurizio De Marco) into legal and illegal investments by the Secondigliano clan founded by Vincenzo's father, Paolo Di Lauro, known as “Ciruzzo o' milionario”.
The Court of Appeal of Napoli yesterday called to express an opinion on the appeal presented by criminal lawyers Antonio Abet and Andrea Lucchetta, partially accepted the lawyers' requests. In particular, the Judge did not consider the hypothesis regarding the existence of an autonomous association aimed at bid-rigging and two out of four drug-related crimes to be substantiated.
The remaining accusation of the DDA has been confirmed and therefore Vincenzo Di Lauro remains in prison despite the Review Court having ordered his release - but only formally - in relation to the hypotheses deemed non-existent. The confirmations therefore concern Vincenzo's leading role within the clan and also in the associations aimed at trafficking contraband cigarettes, drugs and in the reinvestment of the funds resulting from those activities in legal and illegal activities.
Since 2015, Vincenzo was the head of the Di Lauro clan which had previously been in the hands of his father (from 1990 to 2002) and his brothers Cosimo (deceased) between 2002 and 2005; Marco, between 2005 and 2012 and Salvatore.
From the reconstruction of the management of the Di Lauro clan drawn up by the deputy prosecutors De Marco and Giugliano, it emerges that within the clan there was a movement wing opposed to him that holds him responsible for having liquidated the Camorra organization which, it should be remembered, had by then been largely weakened by the repressive action of the judiciary and the police.
