Un terremoto nel mondo camorristico: il boss dei Casale, Francesco Schiavone “Sandokan”, dopo 26 anni dal suo arrest, ha deciso di collaborare con la giustizia.
Article Key Points
The news, reported by Cronache di Caserta, has shocked the Casalese community and represents an epochal turning point in the fight against camorra.
A reign of terror that is crumbling. Sandokan, 71, was considered the man who ousted Antonio Bardellino, another well-known clan leader. Arrested in 1998 and sentenced to life imprisonment for several murders, he was in hard prison.
Now, his decision to repent could reveal clan secrets that have remained hidden for almost 30 years. Recently, also because he is ill, he was transferred to the prison in L'Aquila.
The children who preceded the father
Sandokan's choice follows that of his sons Nicola and Walter, who have already been collaborating with justice since 2018 and 2021 respectively. A hard blow for the clan, which finds itself without its historical leader and with its leadership fragmented.
Sandokan's collaboration is still in its infancy and only time will tell whether it is a sincere repentance or a convenient strategy. The police have however offered a protection program to the boss's family, a sign that his decision could lead to important revelations.
An uncertain future for the Casalesi clan
With the fall of Sandokan, the Casalesi clan's empire of terror seems to be crumbling. It remains to be seen whether there will be a criminal resurgence of the group and who, among Sandokan's other sons, Carmine, Emanuele and Ivanhoe, will assume control.
La collaborazione di Sandokan rappresenta una vittoria per lo Stato e un passo avanti nella lotta contro la camorra. Le sue rivelazioni potrebbero portare all’arresto di altri affiliati e alla confisca di beni illeciti, contribuendo a indebolire il clan e a liberare il territorio dal suo giogo oppressivo.
