Mafia godfathers in Sicily have been caught on wiretaps lamenting the “miserable” calibre of new recruits as nearly 150 alleged criminals were arrested in dawn raids involving 1,200 police officers.
Crime bosses from Cosa Nostra, the Italian island’s notorious mafia, unfavourably compared the new generation of mafiosi to those of the past, invoking the example of The Godfather, the classic 1972 film starring Marlon Brando as the Sicilian-American patriarch Don Corleone.
They said that, unlike their predecessors, new recruits were too quick to turn “pentito” – or state witness – as soon as they were arrested.
“The calibre these days is low, a miserable level,” Giancarlo Romano, an alleged mafia don, said in an intercepted conversation.
