Italian police arrested 44 people on Thursday in the latest development of a major probe against an alleged mafia-like ring based in Rome.
Italian authorities on Thursday closed down two famous restaurants in the center of the capital city of Rome for suspected mafia links, local media said.
Italian police on Tuesday carried out a major operation against Camorra, the crime syndicate based in the southern region of Campania, local media reported.
The presence of the mafia has scared foreign investors away from Italy with an estimated loss of some 16 billion euros (18.55 billion U.S. dollars) in recent years, the governor of the Bank of Italy has said.
