39 arrests were carried out during the night by the carabinieri del Ros between Venice and other Italian cities. The suspects are former members of the Banda del Brenta who, with mafia methods, were trying to reconstruct the former criminal group. The objective was the control of the territory.
The people involved are about eighty, the hypotheses of drug trafficking, robbery and extortion that have taken place in the last ten years.
The reconstruction of the Mala, headed by Felice Maniero, would have been facilitated by the release of some former exponents.
