Casoria. A foreign woman with suitcases in an area like Naples and its province does not arouse suspicion.
and that's why the Casoria clans had chosen her as a courier to make a delivery of a large quantity of cocaine: 11 kilograms. And at the end of the operation the woman and the two buyers ended up in handcuffs.It all took place in Via Ventotene, in the crowded town of Casoria. But the carabinieri of the Castellammare di Stabia company interrupted the transaction.
They were far from the territory and free from service: they noticed a foreign woman on the street with two large black suitcases. She tries to pass for a tourist who has just arrived or is about to leave after a holiday in Naples and instead her attitude is typical of someone who has something to hide.
He's in a hurry, he's waiting for someone. He never leaves the suitcases, even if they seem very heavy.
The carabinieri decide to lie in wait, to understand what is happening. Then the turning point. Two people arrive. They stop with the woman in front of a door.
At that point the soldiers decide to intervene and in fact their instincts do not betray them: in the suitcases there are approximately 11 kilos of cocaine, in the pockets of one of the two men 13 thousand euros in 650 20 euro notes.
