| | MINISTERO DELL'INTERNO |
 | | This is obviously part of a large-scale project and there is reason to believe that main objectives include the attempt to reduce the heavy effects caused by the government’s response to the extreme violence of the "bombings wing". | | | In this regard, it should be noted that, according to investigative elements gathered in 1997, MADONIA had, at that time, a significant role in the management of public contracts also in the province of Agrigento. | | | Hence, we cannot exclude the possibility of new murders in the Locri area in order to maintain the balance resulting from the armed truce between the CORDI’ family and the CATALDO family. |

| | BACKGROUND |
| | As to the province of Palermo there are clear signs indicating that the attempt of reunifying the “families” led by PROVENZANO faces opposition. | | | From a police check carried out in September 2000, for example, 25 important members of Bari-based clans were identified in a restaurant; this meeting could be seen as an attempt at finding a truce between the fighting clans, an attempt at subdividing their interests. | | | Some investigators believe that most of the authors come from other provinces operating in agreement with local clans. |
