Lucia Musti's statement on the timing of confiscated-asset reassignment in Piedmont
Attorney General Lucia Musti addresses the time needed to return to the community assets confiscated from organized crime in Turin and Piedmont. According to her statement, even when the process proceeds without hitches, it takes between three and four years, in the best case, from the confiscation order to the asset's actual reassignment.[1]
The statement
Musti notes that the City of Turin is significantly engaged in managing these procedures, but observes that in the region's smaller municipalities the timeframes tend to stretch out further compared with the provincial capital.[1] The Attorney General also points to the greater difficulties that arise when the confiscated assets consist of land or buildings, cases in which the bureaucratic process becomes even more complex.[1]
Context
The statement is part of a broader dossier on organized crime in Piedmont, with particular attention to the presence of the 'ndrangheta in the area and to the role of associations, such as Libera, engaged in the social reuse of assets seized from criminal organizations.[1]
