The order, issued by the GIP of the Court of Naples at the request of the Neapolitan District Anti-Mafia Directorate, was executed with the support of the Border Police.
The investigation, conducted by Flying Squad of Naples, has brought to light an alleged system of intimidation and threats against the owner of a garage in the historic center of the Campania capital.
The arrested man, who ran a competing business in the same area, allegedly pressured his colleague to hand over control of the incoming car flow, thus ensuring greater profits for his garage.
He had made death threats to him and his family
According to the investigators' reconstruction, the man exploited his ties with local organized crime figures to intimidate the victim, even going so far as to threaten to kill him, his family and his employees.
In some cases, he would even have forced the transfer of vehicles already parked in the other garage, forcing the owners to move them to their own business. In addition to the arrest, the police carried out the preventive seizure of the suspect's garage.
In front of the garage, the deputy Borrelli was attacked
In fact, the man is considered by the Neapolitan DDA to be close to the Mazzarella clan: his garage has been seized. It is the same garage in front of which the deputy Francesco Emilio Borrelli was attacked, last December, during a social live broadcast aimed at denouncing the illegal occupation of the streets by the garages in the area.
