Carmelo Gallico is wanted in Italy for murder, extortion and money laundering
A leading member of the Calabrian mafia, the ‘Ndrangheta’, has been arrested in Barcelona in an operation by the Mossos d’Esquadra Catalan police in cooperation with police in Italy.
The Mossos said in a statement on Wednesday that Carmelo Gallico, aged 46, was arrested on December 23, hiding out in a flat in the Eixample district, ‘where he tried to attract as little attention as possible’. His daily routine was to spend, ‘hours in the library, in a nearby gym and in certain bars in Eixample where he felt safe.’
Gallico is wanted in Italy for serious crimes including membership of a mafia organisation, murder, extortion and money laundering.
