"Italy's largest mafia trial in three decades to begin against 'Ndrangheta"

How is this trial progressing, is the prosecutor afraid for his life? He's working against dark waters and this is a massive sting! In truth will it make any dent in the illegal activities and drugs?

Thanks Sage for your 2 posts...Just read them...

 

So far not much talk on the ndrangheta trial which is going to be clelebrated

 

 

About Giulio Regeni's death which happened in 2016 ( it's been 5 long years already)...So far no tangible evidence he was a spy.......The egyptian authorities tried to de-route case right from the start.....First by saying he had died due to a car accident, then declaring he got killed by thugs...Fact is Egypt and its ruler Al-Sisi is obsessed by the idea every foreigner is a spy...The Italian enquirers did a great job in finding a lot and  the Italian judges already wrote down papers with the names of high rank officials and other police members responsible for the killing.....All of that was always rejected by Egypt
