ITALY:Mourinho and Lampard in Mafia murder case
Frank Lampard have become
embroiled in a mafia appeal trial -
with pictures of them being used
as an attempt to fight off murder
charges.
Cesare Pagano and Rito Calzone ordered and
executed the killing of 43-year-old Carmine
Amoruso, who was shot dead in a bingo hall
in Mugnano near Naples in 2006, Roma
newspaper reports.
Calzone was sentenced to 14 years in prison
by a court in Naples in 2010 following a
bloody turf war between rival gangs that
spiralled out of control.
Calzone, though, claims he was in Barcelona
to watch Chelsea take on the Catalans in the
Champions League - with his lawyers now
producing pictures of him posing alongside
Mourinho and several Chelsea players,
including Lampard and Hernan Crespo in
Barcelona.
The pictures were taken at the luxury Arts
Hotel, where the London team was staying
ahead of the match against Barcelona.
Calzone along with associates of his gang
reportedly paid for three suites at the hotel.
The pictures, hotel receipts and plane tickets
all form part of the appeal case.
