Ross Kemp's shocking discoveries
Former EastEnders actor turned journalist Ross Kemp has uncovered surprising links between the Italian Mafia and Britain, revealing their operations from unexpected locations such as a Woking furniture shop and a caravan park in Lancashire.
The Mafia's presence in the UK
Despite common perceptions of the Mafia operating in Sicily or New York, Kemp's documentary series reveals a century-long history of organised crime families from Italy having ties to the UK, with experts suggesting that their presence might be stronger than ever.
From London to Lancashire
Kemp traces the Mafia's influence in 1920s London, where mobsters like Charles "Darby" Sabini ran racecourse rackets, to more recent incidents such as the discovery of Roberto Calvi in 1982 hanging under Blackfriars Bridge — a message of their presence in Britain.
Uncovering the hidden operations
Through encounters with ex-assassins and mob bosses' daughters, Kemp delves into the world of money laundering, drug trafficking, and violent crimes orchestrated by the Mafia in the UK, shedding light on their secretive and complex operations.
A global web of crime
Kemp's investigation takes him to Colombia, the US, Spain, and Italy, showcasing the far-reaching connections of the Mafia and their involvement in various criminal activities across different countries.
The impact on British society
Experts warn of the Mafia's influence on the UK, with implications for money laundering in major financial institutions like banks and the potential consequences for the City of London if illegal funds were to be withdrawn.
Conclusion
Ross Kemp's eye-opening series, Ross Kemp: Mafia And Britain, uncovers the hidden world of organised crime in the UK, revealing a side of the Mafia that operates beyond the stereotypical portrayals, with implications for law enforcement and society at large.
