Repeated violation of social services orders: 29-year-old drug dealer returns to prison

Orta di Atella – He betrayed the trust placed in him by the Surveillance Court, repeatedly violating the rules imposed by his probationary placement with social services. For this reason, a 29-year-old with a criminal record was arrested by the Carabinieri of the Orta di Atella station, who executed a warrant for his detention yesterday evening, Monday, March 9, 2026.

The alternative measure and the violations

The order, issued by the Naples Surveillance Office, stems from a previous conviction for illegal possession of narcotics. On that occasion, the judge granted the 29-year-old the option of serving his sentence on probation, a measure that provides for a process of social reintegration under the supervision and support of social services.

However, the man, originally from the Caserta area but actually resident in the Naples area and domiciled in Orta di Atella, did not comply with the imposed obligations.

Investigations and revocation of the benefit

During the scheduled checks, the Carabinieri documented several repeated instances of non-compliance with the regulations. The information gathered was promptly forwarded to the competent judicial authority, which assessed the severity and recurrence of the behavior. In light of this, the court revoked the alternative measure, ordering the young man's imprisonment.

The Carabinieri then located the 29-year-old at his home in Orta di Atella. After serving the restraining order and completing the necessary formalities, the man was placed under arrest and subsequently taken to the Santa Maria Capua Vetere prison, where he will remain at the disposal of the judicial authorities.
