Arzano. A blow for the women of the 167 clan. In fact, the mother and niece of the boss Giuseppe Monfregolo were “thrown out” of the Acer lodgings because they were illegal.
Eviction operations against Luisa Grassini, the boss's mother who has been under house arrest since 25 April 2022 during the blitz by the Carabinieri of Castello di Cisterna which also led to the imprisonment of 29 members of the Arzanese secessionist wing linked to the Amato-Pagano family, also concerned the grandson of Grassini, unauthorized occupant of a dwelling.
Nephew who happens to be the current partner of Raffaele Piscopo, detained together with Mariano Monfregolo for the threats to the local commander, Biagio Chiariello and he laid them out with the throwing of bombs against the journalist Dominic RubioThe activities were coordinated by the municipal official who supposedly convinced the two women to leave the apartments (which were later walled up) to avoid forced eviction.
The investigations that led to the discovery of dozens of unauthorized occupations and the construction of actual villas built in the porticoes of the urban agglomeration by relatives and members of the clan, started from detailed journalistic reports and subsequent investigative investigations by the local police and the Carabinieri of the branch.
Grassini, among other things, would have been an unauthorized squatter since the 80s. Apartments that before the feud that broke out between the Cristianos (now collaborators of justice) and the Monfregolos with many murders and shootings, were occupied by the rival clan "chased" to the nearby municipalities. Frattamaggiore and Frattaminore after the criminal collapse that culminated with the murder of Salvatore Petrillo, cousin of Cristiano, killed in a bar in Arzano and which resulted in injuries to four other people who by pure chance were in the commercial activity.
A meticulous intelligence work with the census and the simultaneous start of investigations for the monitoring of illegally occupied houses which just a few months ago saw the eviction of the wife of the boss Monfregolo detained in Nuoro prison where he also got married and then moved into the apartment, complete with luxurious furnishings and a terrace of over 200 square meters in a well-known office building belonging to a well-known local Neapolitan entrepreneur.
The same apartment had previously been inhabited by the rival Christian that even if under house arrest, during the communion of the son he went around Arzano on board a Ferrari convertible.
La Grassini, mother of the Monfregolo family, in addition to being defined in the arrest warrant as a promoter and leading associate of the criminal association, he was the protagonist a few years ago despite being under house arrest, of a singular video posted on social TikTok humming the reason "Or do you want to understand that no one is there?” from cryptic references.
Meanwhile, the Prosecutor's Office would like to see clearly why, after so many years and dozens of complaints, action was taken after such a long period of time. Monfregolo boss, as proof of his criminal calibre, he was interviewed by Julius Goliath of transmission Reservoir Dogs.
Monfregolo, sentenced in the first instance to 3 years and 6 months for attempted extortion and before being arrested in the 2022 raid, had declared in the interview that he had nothing to do with the Camorra nor that he was a boss.
The Monfregolo boss interviewed by Le Iene: "I'm not a boss, but a victim."
“I don't do drugs or extortion”, Monfregolo had told Giulio Golia. “We’re not idiots who plant bombs on the parish priest or threaten the police commander.” Goliath had gone to 167 via Colombo where Giuseppe Monfregolo also lived. Camera lowered, Goliath asked him a series of questions.
“I am not the regent of anything, I am persecuted. I am not a boss but a simple citizen. If my brother made a mistake he must pay but I do not believe that his were threats. He was angry about the photos that the Commander had taken”.
Giulio Golia presses him and asks him if the threats made to the commander by Mariano are the result of the photos taken. Obtaining in response the confirmation of Giuseppe Monfregolo who however does not consider them intimidations. Golia presses Monfregolo again and asks him why he is accompanied by young people around the city.
"Why can't you have a friend who loves you and comes to get you? This is just a theater because I don't extort and I don't sell drugs". Stressing the fact that he had always driven without a license and without insurance, stressing that the “acts (ordinances) are one thing and courts are another”, referring to the sentences.
