Caltanissetta: Confiscation of businesses, land and vehicles from a repeat offender convicted of mafia association 

The Carabinieri of the Operational Department have a precautionary seizure order of assets was executed against a man from Enna, issued by the Court of Caltanissetta - Prevention Measures Section of Caltanissetta, at the request of the District Anti-Mafia Directorate of Nissena. The asset checks carried out by specialized personnel of the Carabinieri concerned a man, already definitively sentenced to eight years of imprisonment for "mafia association" and have allowed to establish the disproportion between the declared income and the value of his assets.

The prevention decree originates from an accurate activity aimed at identifying and attacking illicit assets, also with reference to assets that are formally owned by others but attributable to criminal organisations or in any case to subjects close to them.

In particular, the object of the seizure, with a view to a possible subsequent confiscation, was an agricultural business, over thirty lands, a building, three vehicles, some AGEA securities, i.e. the Agency for Agricultural Payments, and a bank account, for a total estimated value of approximately two million euros. These assets have been entrusted to the management of an appropriately appointed judicial administrator.

This result, which comes at the end of complex documentary and patrimonial investigation activities, is part of a careful analysis by the Carabinieri with the coordination of the Public Prosecutor's Office of Caltanissetta, aimed at to the application of the preventive measures provided for by the Anti-Mafia Code, in a province that sees a large presence of companies operating in the agricultural sector.
