Coronavirus lockdown helps Italian police nab 'leading' mobster

 

Rome (AFP) - A top 'Ndrangheta clan member was arrested in Italy after police, helped by the anti-coronavirus lockdown, spotted the fugitive smoking inside a seemingly deserted safe house, authorities said Friday.

 

Cesare Cordi, described by police as a "leading figure of the 'Ndrangheta of Locri" in southern Calabria, had been on the run since August, when a judge issued a warrant for the 42-year-old's arrest.

 

Thanks to the empty streets and stay-at-home orders imposed throughout the country due to the coronavirus risk, the police, who had been tracking Cordi for days, found him at a house in the town of Bruzzano Zeffirio, at the tip of Italy's boot, late on Thursday.

 

"The faint glow of a cigarette โ€“ caught through the crack of a shutter โ€“ was enough to give the carabinieri the certainty that in that house was the wanted man," the police of the province of Reggio Calabria, who staged the raid, said in a statement.

'Ndrangheta mob boss is captured thanks to coronavirus quarantine after empty streets enabled police to spot cigarette smoke coming from his 'abandoned' house hideout

 

The boss of Italian mob 'Ndrangheta has been captured thanks to the country's coronavirus quarantine, after empty streets enabled police to spot cigarette smoke coming from his hideout.

 

Cesare Antonio Cordรฌ, the 42-year-old boss of the gang based in Calabria, Italy, was caught out by the government's 'stay at home' order after clear streets led police to inspect suspicious activity on uninhabited land.

 

Hiding in an abandoned house in the isolated district of Bruzzano Zeffirio, a small town in the Locride area of Calabria, mobster Cordรฌ was betrayed by his own cigarette smoke seen emerging from the building.
