Map locating recent murders by the Camorra

Art students in Naples have produced a map locating recent murders by the Camorra to underscore the local Mafia's deadly presence in the southern Italian city, one of the organisers said Friday."Our aim is to denounce the grip of the Mafia on our city," Orazio Manzo said.The fold-out map pinpoints the sites of some 40 murders attributed to the Camorra Mafia between 2005 and 2007, giving the victims' names and the times and dates of their deaths."We plan to hand it out free in the streets to Neapolitans, but also to tourists to draw their attention to the fact that Naples is not only a city of beautiful monuments but also a crime capital," Manzo said.
"We'd like to give them to the tourist offices, but we're not sure they would take them," he added.Manzo acknowledged that the recent crisis in which 200,000 tonnes of rubbish piled up on the streets of Naples because of a backed-up waste disposal system had not helped the city's reputation.
That crisis was also blamed at least in part on the Camorra, which controls many of the landfills in the area.The Camorra is thought to dominate many aspects of life in Naples and the surrounding region, one of the poorest in Italy.Last December, Italian bakers handed out 20,000 free loaves of bread one Sunday in a main square in Naples to protest against the Camorra's intimidation of their profession.
