Castellammare di Stabia – Twenty-four hours after the massive raid that dealt a severe blow to the D'Alessandro clan, the Naples District Anti-Mafia Directorate strikes again. In the early hours of November 12, 2025, the Carabinieri of the Torre Annunziata Group executed two pre-trial detention orders issued by the preliminary investigations judge of the Court of Naples, at the request of the Anti-Mafia Directorate, against two individuals deemed seriously suspected of a series of crimes aggravated by mafia methods.
According to investigators, those arrested allegedly played a central role in a complex system of fraudulent transfers of assets, illicit competition involving violence and threats, and attempted extortion, all aimed at facilitating the activities of the D'Alessandro clan, a historic Camorra group that dominated Castellammare di Stabia.
The “monopoly” of rescue
The investigation—led by the Public Prosecutor's Office and conducted by the Carabinieri—revealed a covert and monopolistic control of the emergency medical service at the San Leonardo hospital in Castellammare.
Behind the appearance of a regular business activity, the men of the clan allegedly imposed – through systematic intimidation and threats to competitors – their management of the ambulance service for the transport of the sick and for the 118 emergency service.
A deep-rooted and profitable system, which guaranteed the criminal group not only huge profits but also control of the territory, in a sensitive sector such as emergency healthcare.
Pressure also on the Menti stadium
But the clan's greed would not stop at the healthcare world.

This further confirms, investigators emphasize, the pervasiveness of mafia power, capable of insinuating itself into every aspect of the city's economic life, from public services to sports venues.
The "front" company has been seized
Concurrently with the arrests, the investigating judge ordered the precautionary seizure of the company which – according to the DDA's reconstruction – constituted the operational vehicle through which the clan exercised its monopoly in the ambulance sector.
The company, formally registered to a third party, was in reality managed and controlled by members of the clan, who used it to disguise illicit profits and consolidate their presence in the area.
A new chapter in the anti-mafia offensive
Yesterday's operation is part of a broader investigative effort that, for months, has been dismantling the economic and criminal empire of the D'Alessandro clan, one of the most entrenched in the Castellammare di Stabia Camorra.
Today's arrests complete a picture of mafia infiltration into the city's vital sectors, confirming that the clan's power was based not only on violence but also on the covert management of seemingly legal business activities.
