'Ndrangheta group:
Italy braces for biggest mafia trial in decades

Hundreds of alleged members of Italy's most powerful mafia group are set to face justice in the country's biggest organised crime trial in decades.

The 355 suspected mobsters

and corrupt officials were charged following a long inquiry into the 'Ndrangheta group.

More than 900 witnesses are expected to give evidence, and the charge sheet includes:

murder, drug trafficking, extortion and money laundering.

The trial begins on Wednesday and is expected to last more than two years.

It will take place in a specially modified building in the southern region of Calabria, which is at the heart of 'Ndrangheta territory.

The building, formerly a call centre in the town of in Lamezia Terme, has been converted into a fortified courtroom to make space for the hundreds of people likely to attend the proceedings. No mafia trial has been held in Italy on such a scale since the 1980s.

That place is full of criminals.

That place is where the regional airport is so I'd say there's a bit of everything there.

And if you think there are no criminals in Melbourne you're even dumber than I gave you credit for ... and I give you heaps of credit in the dumb department.

The Mafia and it’s offshoots don’t have an exclusive licence to murder, drug trafficking and money luandering in Melbourne. Some of those crimes have actually taken place inside the old Russell St, Police Club/dining room.

Probably not as many as there were before they intalled surveyance equipment in the police club. Either that or they’re getting more discreet.
