research and investigation Spata Carlotta
Wear in Italy is not attributable to a particular area. It is not subject to anyone. In one area there may be various forms of usury. The old quarter of sordid money-lender, the so-called cravattaro, whose prototype has filled many pages of great novels of the nineteenth century to the present day has become much more: an unexpected professional who has chosen a particularly lucrative investment sourcing some of its savings not banks, as it would be reasonable, not to stock market investments or whatever is lawfully provided in our capitalist economy to make money through capital investment, but a money lender, which uses the money in shady dealings, or, even our unsuspecting trader pays the money directly to friends and business associates in exchange for solid guarantees and Interest Rate out of every rule, the cravattaro became nellapparire but fluency is always the same: they are both criminals, men of ill repute. And I ?[...]
Mafia mobsters have always told not to practice usury, but the principle behind this petition is hidden hypocrisy: the so-called "men of honor" to strangle, and the organization providing the tolerate, maybe hiding sometimes a bit sheepish '. But the practice, and how. In the most extensive and widespread than we think.
course practiced usury by "men of honor" should never come into conflict with the business of the mafia. The loan sharks are not permissible when there is this danger. They are not allowed to take so much space to create public alarm. And those who practice usury without being part of the mafia families but being in areas with high mafia density, can not pretend that that money may be exempt from the lace. Giovanni Brusca in
I killed Giovanni Falcone, a book signed by Saverio Lodato, said: "Underneath" were quite a few '"men of honor" who practiced usury. "To a friend of his usurer Brusca said," Stop or I'll kill you. He stopped immediately, but after he complained, saying that would still give a lot of money. I replied: I'll break all your bones break. If you want to be my friend you have to stop. Want to be my friend? Yes? Then stop. I do not want to loan sharks to me. It happened in fact - Brusca concludes - that some poor guy came to us complaining of any lender. Then he intervened and said: Let's a cut, which meant forcing the moneylender to settle for a simple return of capital. "
The mafia wants to reign supreme, never gives up, to impose rules that regulate business and to contain the tensions their territories. And always requires respect for the rules. In many cases hath been established that the mobsters who practice usury charged, like all other employers in the district or the area, the lace thigh that controls the territory on which hath been consumed wear. Disciplined. There are no mafia money lenders, holders of a normal economic activity, traders who work through the throat and simultaneously pay the mafia protection money regularly on their legitimate activities. The Mafia often sees "limited to protection."
There was a robbery at a jewelry store in a neighborhood of Palermo, where they paid all the so-called protection. A few days later - the jeweler had protested with her protector - a part of the stolen property was returned to its rightful owner. Only part, though. The other was explained to the trader, whose well-known mafia MILKMAIDS parallel usurer of the levy was part of the "family" is not declared on the profits of wear.
Even in Calabria, in Reggino above all, the men of the 'Ndrangheta dish out damage. I do not have exclusive: not living with usurers' Ndrangheta, or wear is never practiced as a core activity of the gang, but the franchisees on their own, they throw you to bring up money and do so without prejudice. In this context gangster extortion and wear live together peacefully. Sometimes they also give you a hand so it can happen that the trader has been persecuted and extortionists extortion usurer. Twice a victim of people not related to one another, each which, if any, recourse to another. And if the victim is becoming at risk in that it could not "honor" commitments with more "normal" loan shark? This encourages his "client" to turn to his friend that can lend even more money. And the tragedy is to discover that the new player is linked allorganizzazione mafia. E 'wear what is called second level: the higher the risk of default should be the highest capacity to intimidate. The 'Ndrangheta leave it. She also may need to: wear that does not return can become a "dark wood", ie a nominee for the affairs of the clan, be used to manage and clean up dirty money and capital.
