On behalf of the Public Prosecutor, the military personnel of the Economic-Financial Police Unit (GICO) of the Guardia di Finanza of Naples, on February 27, 2026, executed a seizure order issued by the Preventive Measures Section of the Court of Santa Maria Capua Vetere, at the request of the District Anti-Mafia Directorate of Naples.

The measure concerns a 51-year-old entrepreneur from San Cipriano d'Aversa, who operates in the concrete supply and construction and roadwork sectors. It affects assets and real estate estimated at over €2,2 million, believed to be the result of illicit enrichment.

A final sentence for mafia money laundering

The entrepreneur was definitively convicted of money laundering aggravated by mafia-related circumstances and is currently indicted for external involvement in a mafia-type conspiracy, fraudulent transfer of assets, and auction-rigging.

The Court of Santa Maria Capua Vetere deemed the individual to pose a significant social danger, also based on his historical proximity to organized criminal groups operating in the Cassino and Caserta areas.

Ties to the Casalesi clan

The investigation, coordinated by the Public Prosecutor's Office – Anti-Mafia District Directorate of Naples, revealed that, since the early 2000s, the entrepreneur had been involved in a small circle of businessmen linked to the Casalesi clan – Schiavone faction.

The statements of several collaborators of justice, confirmed by in-depth investigative investigations, place him firmly at the center of a system of rigging public tenders, especially in the province of Caserta, based on fictitious company registrations, corrupt practices, and intimidation resulting from the strength of the Camorra syndicate.

How the clan exploited the concrete business

In this context, the connection with the clan would have allowed the entrepreneur to win important public contracts and significant supplies of concrete, while the criminal organization benefited from a constant flow of economic resources.

These funds came from false invoicing, cash withdrawals, and the monetization of credit instruments, with percentages commensurate with the value of the orders or the quantity of materials supplied. The profits, thus "laundered," ended up in the assets of the individual and his family.

Disproportion between declared income and assets owned

The financial and financial investigations conducted by the financial police on the entrepreneur and his family revealed a significant disproportion between the declared income and the assets accumulated over time.

According to investigators, this accumulation is attributable to illicit enrichment linked to the stable relationship with the clan, well beyond what was declared for tax purposes and compatible with money laundering activities and misleading regulatory authorities.

The order of the Court of Santa Maria Capua Vetere

In light of these findings, the Court of Santa Maria Capua Vetere ordered the seizure of the shares and entire business assets of a company operating in the construction and concrete supply sectors.

Furthermore, 15 properties, including buildings and land located in the province of Caserta, four luxury vehicles, and numerous banking and financial accounts were seized, allegedly used as tools to conceal illicit profits. The measure was carried out by members of the Economic and Financial Police Unit of the Naples Guardia di Finanza, with the aim of weakening the entity's financial capacity and preventing further mafia infiltration into the public procurement system.
