Game over for a business in the Spanish Quarters of Naples, which has become an emblem of illegal activity in the heart of the city. Agents from the Lawyers' Operations Unit of the Local Police have seized the premises, sealing off the entrance after having ascertained, once again, that the business continued despite the total lack of authorizations.
The intervention came at the culmination of a long series of investigations and checks that began in February, when the business had come under scrutiny for several irregularities related to the illegal occupation of public land, the unauthorized sale of alcohol and the illegal use of music systems. The picture that emerged from then was clear: no Certified Notification of Commencement of Activity (SCIA), no health authorization, zero qualifications for the administration and sale of alcohol. Not even the change of intended use from residential to commercial was regular.
An inspection carried out in May had already led to the imposition of four administrative sanctions, but the manager had continued to ignore every obligation, continuing the activity in violation of urban planning, tax and health regulations. The latest blitz by the agents confirmed the illegal and constant conduct, making the seizure inevitable.
