Police arrest seven in Lazio 'clan' probe

Italian police arrested seven people today in a crackdown on an organised crime group that allegedly tried to buy Lazio football club with laundered money.

Three people were still at large in a probe that targeted nine Italians and a Hungarian, who tried to acquire the club through money coming from the illicit activities of the Casalesi clan, a group of the Naples-based Camorra crime syndicate, Rome police said in a statement.
