250 soldiers deployed to Naples

(ANSA) - Rome, February 15 - The deployment of 250 soldiers in Naples is the "rapid response" by the State to a recent upsurge in Camorra mafia-related violence, Interior Minister Angelino Alfano said Monday.
    "These back-up units will be a more forceful representation of the defence of legality that we intend to set against the episodes of violence and upsurge in criminality and internal feuds that characterise criminal action right now, by boosting local security and strengthening citizens' confidence in the institutions," Alfano said. The deployment is just one pillar of a complex plan that also includes better communication between investigative units, more investigators, more video surveillance and greater efficiency in emergency call out services.
