ROME — Politicians, public servants, professors and businessmen were among dozens of people arrested near the Italian city of Naples Wednesday accused of being part of a corruption and bid-rigging ring linked to the powerful Camorra local Mafia, reports NBC news .
A former mayor of Pompeii was among those targeted in early-morning raids in at least 10 towns. Officials said that 30 people were arrested with 36 others were put under house arrest.
Investigators believe the ring was run by the Zagaria, a family from the Camorra’s infamous Casalesi clan. They allegedly would ensure tenders were assigned to companies and individuals they had selected.
