In a shocking development in the ongoing investigation into Inter and AC Milan ultras, police have discovered a weapons cache believed to be the arsenal of Inter Milan’s Curva Nord fan group. The discovery was made in Cambiago, a town in the Milan metropolitan area, following leads from the arrest of several prominent ultras.
The warehouse, uncovered by Milan investigators, contained an alarming array of weaponry. Police seized pistols, Kalashnikov rifles, hand grenades, and a large quantity of ammunition. This find represents a significant escalation in the probe into football-related organized crime.
The breakthrough came as a result of property investigations linked to an ultra already in custody. The warehouse is reportedly connected to an individual associated with these circles, and it was through investigating this person that authorities were able to locate the site.
The discovery raises serious concerns about the extent of criminal activities within football fan groups and the potential for violence. It also highlights the challenges faced by law enforcement in tackling organized crime within the sport.
As the investigation continues, the Milan police department has refrained from commenting, neither confirming nor denying the reports of this operation. The implications of this find are likely to have far-reaching consequences for football fan culture in Italy and may lead to increased scrutiny of ultra groups across the country.
