Despite the serious nature of the accusation, because Mario Cardillo, known as Marittiello o' Meccanico or Faccia Appiciata (The Sticky Face), is accused by the prosecution of being the head promoter of a drug trafficking organization that imported large quantities of hashish from Spain using the services of a Giugliano logistics company registered to a front man, his defense lawyer managed to convince the investigating judge and obtained his release from prison and house arrest.

A sensational turn of events considering the complexity of the investigation, which included the seizure of drugs and the arrest of five people.
