‘Ndrangheta, Occhiuto: tomorrow we will shoot down the eco-monster with explosives

“What the ‘Ndrangheta built by disfiguring our region, Calabria today destroys.” Thus in a story on Instagram the president of the Calabria Region, Roberto Occhiuto, with reference to the demolition, scheduled for tomorrow, of the eco-monster of Melissa (Crotone), «Palazzo Mangeruca», a former furniture factory confiscated years ago from an ‘Ndrangheta gang. «Calabria has two monsters: the ‘Ndrangheta and building abuse. This – Occhiuto explains in the video attached to the story – is a building built by an ‘Ndrangheta gang 40 years ago. For too many years no one took care of it. We will collapse it with explosives on Sunday, because what the ‘Ndrangheta built by disfiguring our region, Calabria today destroys. In Calabria – concludes Occhiuto – the institutions are stronger than the ‘Ndrangheta. We will take them all down.”
