Castellammare di Stabia – An investigation has been opened into the mega illegal party, complete with fireworks and popped champagne bottles, which took place yesterday evening on the Stabiese seafront and which accompanied the return home of Luciano Verdoliva, a local boss accused of homicide aggravated by mafia methods and later acquitted by the Court of Assizes of Naples.

The 48-year-old, wearing glasses, a ponytail, and a tracksuit, has arrived close to what until two years ago had been his award-winning restaurant, appreciated by magazines and cooking websites for its fish specialties.
And as soon as he got out of the car, the celebration of family and friends broke out with fireworks that started from the nearby beach. The scenes were filmed and reposted on Tik Tok accompanied by the soundtrack in the background by Gianni Fiorellino: “Niscuna nuttata nu po maie fernì”.
The sentence of absolution, issued yesterday afternoon, and anticipated by our website, has caused discussion. Weighing on the judges' decision was the retraction in court of the repentant Sovereto, who did not fully confirm the accusations made just a year ago. A turning point that has reopened the debate on the reliability of collaborators of justice and the system of protection reserved for them.
Francesco Emilio Borrelli, MP for the Green and Left Alliance (Avs), has attacked the retraction, calling for Sovereto to be excluded from the protection program: “The repentant who recanted – declared Borrelli – must be excluded from the protection program, since he either accused an innocent person or allowed the release of a murderous Camorrista.
Borrelli asks that the repentant who recanted should be removed from the protection program
The abusive and indecent spectacle that the citizens of Castellammare had to witness makes us understand the illegal and overbearing culture of these individuals, who wanted to send a message of power to the city. A message that must be immediately rejected by the institutions”.
The party in the municipal villa, with illegally set off fireworks, was seen as a provocation by the local community, forced to deal with an image of power and impunity.
Meanwhile, Verdoliva's legal case continues to raise questions. The retraction of the repentant, in fact, not only led to his release, but also reopened the case.
Tuesday night’s party, with its pomp and its lawlessness, seems to have sent a clear message: but now someone will probably pay the consequences.
