NAPLES, March 1 – Military personnel from the Economic-Financial Police Unit (G.I.C.O.) of the Guardia di Finanza of Naples, acting on behalf of the Public Prosecutor, executed a patrimonial seizure order on February 27, 2026. The order, issued by the Prevention Measures Section of the Court of Santa Maria Capua Vetere at the request of the District Anti-Mafia Directorate of Naples, targeted assets valued at over 2.2 million euros.
Entrepreneur Linked to Casalesi Clan
The seizure affects the movable and immovable assets of a 51-year-old entrepreneur from San Cipriano d’Aversa (CE). The individual operates in the concrete supply and road and building construction sectors. He has been definitively convicted of money laundering aggravated by mafia association and is currently awaiting trial for external complicity in a mafia-type association, fraudulent transfer of assets, and bid rigging.
Investigations by the District Anti-Mafia Directorate
Investigations coordinated by the District Anti-Mafia Directorate of Naples have revealed that the entrepreneur, since the early 2000s, was part of a restricted circle of businessmen close to the Casalesi clan – Schiavone faction. According to investigative findings and statements from multiple justice collaborators, he allegedly participated in a system designed to rig public tenders, particularly in the province of Caserta. This was achieved through fictitious company registrations, corrupt practices, and intimidation stemming from the power of the Camorra organization.
Illegal Enrichment and Financial Flow to the Clan
The alleged connection with the clan enabled the entrepreneur to secure significant public contracts and concrete supplies. In return, the organization reportedly benefited from a constant flow of economic resources through false invoicing, cash withdrawals, and the monetization of credit instruments, with percentages proportional to the value of the contracts.
Financial assessments conducted by the financial police revealed a significant disparity between declared income and accumulated assets. These assets are believed to be the illicit proceeds of enrichment derived from the stable relationship with the clan.
Assets Subject to Seizure
In light of these findings, the Court of Santa Maria Capua Vetere ordered the seizure of the following assets:
- Shares and corporate assets of one company
- 15 properties, including buildings and land, in the province of Caserta
- 4 motor vehicles
- Bank and financial accounts
This measure constitutes a precautionary patrimonial seizure, which is not yet definitive. Legal remedies for appeal are available under the law.
