Twenty-three people are under investigation: eleven have been placed in pre-trial detention (one managed to escape), six have been placed under house arrest, five have been ordered to remain in their homes, and one remains at large. These are the figures from the major Polo Ovest investigation, which culminated this morning in a raid by the Carabinieri of the Olbia Territorial Unit, with the support of the competent local stations and the "Sardegna" Helicopter Squadron. The orders were issued by the Cagliari investigating judge at the request of the District Anti-Mafia Directorate, as part of an investigation launched in 2019 into two criminal groups involved in drug trafficking, operating in Sardinia and the rest of the Italian peninsula.
Among those involved is the mayor of Esporlatu, Antonio Fadda, an army soldier, who has been ordered to remain at home.
