The Guardia di Finanza of Salerno has seized assets with an estimated value of three million euros from Francesco Capri, a leading member of the clan of the same name active in the Salerno area.
The order, issued by the Court at the request of the Dda, concerns corporate shares and real estate units. Capri has already been convicted of mafia association, extortion, robbery, illegal carrying and possession of weapons, as well as drug-related crimes.
The investigation, conducted by the Gico of the Fiamme Gialle, has brought to light a picture of illicit activities and fictitious ownership of assets. Capri, already under house arrest since 2022, is accused of fraudulent transfer of assets together with Generoso Galderisi, his hidden partner. In the past, three mini-apartments worth 700 thousand euros had been seized, part of a prestigious real estate complex in Salerno.
The new seizure, ordered with the principle of the 'double track' (criminal precautionary measures and prevention), concerns assets attributable to Capri through fictitious registrations dating back over time. Among these, the shares of two companies stand out, including 2G srl, owner of the chalet/bar/pizzeria 'Embarcadero' on the Salerno seafront.
In total, 50% shareholdings in three joint-stock companies and as many business complexes were seized, in addition to five real estate units, two of which for a share equal to half of their overall value.
