MILAN Giovanni Morabito, the 62-year-old son of the 'ndrangheta boss Giuseppe, known as “u tiradrittu” , has been sentenced to 19 years and 4 months in prison. He is accused of association for the purpose of drug trafficking and criminal association for tax crimes and money laundering. This was decided by the preliminary hearing judge of Milan, Anna Calabi, in the abbreviated trial born from the investigation with 68 suspects conducted by the operations centre of the DIA of Milan , by the Carabinieri of the investigative unit of Monza and by the central investigative unit of the penitentiary police and coordinated by the prosecutors of the Milan DDA Sara Ombra and Paolo Biondolillo on the alleged illicit activities of the two criminal groups attributable to the Morabito-Palamara-Bruzzaniti gang . Along with Morabito, defended by the lawyer Giovanna Beatrice Araniti, 17 other defendants were sentenced with the alternative trial, 5 pleaded guilty while 27 others were sent for trial.


But who is Giovanni Morabito? At the time of his arrest, the man worked as a doctor in a nursing home in Milan . His father, the boss Peppe Morabito, was originally from Africo, a town in the province of Reggio Calabria. His 62-year-old son ended up in an investigation, coordinated by the Milan district anti-mafia directorate (specifically by public prosecutors Paola Biondolillo and Sara Ombra), which involved two criminal groups. Morabito was arrested at dawn on October 24, 2023.

The two groups were involved in drug trafficking, extortion and economic-financial crimes including fraud on Covid funds and the 110 bonus for real estate renovations.
