‘Migrants are more profitable than drugs’: how the mafia infiltrated Italy’s asylum system
During the investigation, one of the alleged bosses of the group, #Salvatore_Buzzi, was caught on a wiretap bragging about how much money he made off the backs of asylum seekers. “Do you have any idea how much I earn on immigrants?” he was heard telling an associate. “They’re more profitable than drugs.” Buzzi and his associates were sentenced to decades in prison after a trial that ended in 2017, although their sentences were reduced on appeal. Another appeal is under way.
