A maxi-investigation against the ‘Ndrangheta that resulted in 19 pretrial detention orders and 25 suspects also affected Cesena. According to the Dda of Calabria and the well-known Procurator of the Republic of Catanzaro Nicola Gratteri, the tentacles of the ‘Ndrangheta were behind the “Farmaeko” chain of pharmacies, in particular the Grande Aracri di Cutro ndrina, in the Crotone area.
The chain of pharmacies and parapharmacies was born in Calabria in 2016 and also settled in Cesena, in via Roverella in 2016, before going bankrupt in 2018. Among those arrested, Paolo De Sole, 46, born in Cesena, ended up being detained at home.
The investigation of the “Farmabusinnes” even led to the arrest of the president of the regional council of Calabria, the exponent of Forza Italia Domenico Tallini. The company, based in the Calabrian capital, aimed at the wholesale distribution of medicines through a network of points of sale made up of pharmacies and parapharmacies (20 in Calabria, 2 in Puglia and 1 in Emilia Romagna) through the clan Grande Aracri di Cutro. , would have been used to launder illegal capital.
In fact, according to the Dda of Calabria and the prosecutor Gratteri, behind the birth of this drug business, was the money of the Grande Aracri family, for some time at the center of many ‘Ndrangheta events that arose in Emilia-Romagna . Gratteli defined Grande Aracri, “Family of Series A ‘Ndrangheta”, to underline his ability to infiltrate the business and political fabric.
