Loading ...Italian Most Wanted Mobster Figaro Arrested In Spain
Ciro Figaro, a reputed boss from the Mazzarella clan of the Camorra or Neapolitan Mafia, was arrested last week by Spanish authorities in San Pedro Alcantara. Apparently Figaro was leading a reasonably quiet life on a Marbella urbanization. The son of mafia boss Ciro Russo, who allegedly owed Figaro money was being held against his will and was freed. Figaro did not resist arrest.
He had an active warrant issued for his arrest since 2007 and it’s believed he controlled his clan from Malaga which dealt mostly in drugs. The police had him under surveillance since January and he was arrested in a joint operation between the Spanish and Italian police and Interpol. Figaro was taken before the National Court as there is an extradition order pending.
Documents found by the police indicate he was running drugs between Spain and Italy, due to his numerous contacts in North Africa. It is hoped that this discovery will lead to other members of different mafia gangs on the Costa del Sol, as well as preventing others from setting up operations in the area.
