Mancuso 'ndrina

The '''Mancuso 'ndrina''' is a clan of the 'Ndrangheta, a criminal and mafia-type organisation in Calabria, Italy. The 'ndrina is based in Limbadi and Nicotera and is considered by the investigative bodies as the most influential clan in the province of Vibo Valentia.

They also have influences in the Metropolitan City of Reggio Calabria thanks to the alliance with the Piromalli of Gioia Tauro and the Pesce of Rosarno, contacts with the Torcasio-Giampà group and in the Crotone area where they have links with the Arena 'ndrina of Isola di Capo Rizzuto. They have contacts with the Cosa Nostra families, and historically with the Colombian FARC and the United Self-Defense Forces of Colombia (AUC).

In northern Italy they are present in the northern hinterland of Milan, in particular in Monza, Novara and in the municipalities of Giussano, Seregno, Verano Brianza and Mariano Comense, they are also present in Piedmont (Turin) and Emilia-Romagna (Parma and Bologna), while in central Italy they are present in Lazio and Tuscany. The 'ndrina is also active abroad in particular in Togo, where it takes care of its main criminal activity in Africa, representing the new logistic center for the international trafficking of cocaine.

The Mancuso 'ndrina has been defined by Giuseppe Lumia, the former president of the Antimafia Commission, as the most financially powerful clan in Europe. Provided by Wikipedia
