Tonight the Antimafia section of Agrigento arrested many people connected to the mafia families of Cattolica Eraclea, Montallegro and Ribera. The police are still searching and seizing companies operating in catering and building. Some companies were also involved in the building of the aqueduct “Favara di Burgio”, a great public construction, and in the purchase of land to build a wind plant for power production.
