The most flourishing criminal business in the Nuoro area is the cultivation of marijuana. The data of the State Police speak for themselves, in 2022 alone a thousand quintals were seized.
Compared to 2021, the warnings for mistreatment in the family have doubled (13 recorded cases), the increase in Daspo for urban safety, there are 17 measures issued in the current year.
The murders are marginal, in 2022 there are three.
The figures were illustrated in the press conference at the end of the year by Nuoro's commissioner Alfonso Polverino: «It was a complex year, we tried to manage the post-pandemic and the slow economic recovery by favoring prevention over repression, in terms of road accidents, drugs, gender-based violence and bullying, topics for which we have also created an app and worked with young people in schools».
The commissioner also recalls the management of the Cpr of Macomer, "34 repatriations", and the reception of Ukrainian refugees who fled the war: "There are 300 hosted in the Nuoro area and in Ogliastra, concentrated above all on the coast, where they worked this summer in the hotel business".
"The most critical situation - he observed - remains the cultivation and sale of marijuana, while the crimes that have always characterized this area, such as homicides, have become marginal".
Online fraud is also on the rise, both in terms of e-commerce and online trading.
The director of the traffic police Leo Testa also provided the data: «In 2022 we set up 36,679 surveillance patrols and recorded 16,776, 1,417 licenses withdrawn. There are 372 motorists sanctioned for driving while intoxicated, mostly in the age group between 30 and 45".
