Arrested men were expected to be charged with seven murders, including three which date back 25 years, as well as racketeering, extortion and gambling

Police in Italy and the FBI in New York have arrested dozens of alleged gangsters belonging to the most notorious Sicilian crime families in a closely co-ordinated international operation
More than 80 alleged gang members were rounded up in New York and Palermo in what the head of Italy's parliamentary anti-Mafia commission described as "one of the most important operations of the past 10 years". Those arrested in New York included the entire Gambino family hierarchy, and important figures in the Genovese and Bonanno families, and union and construction industry officials
The New York Times reported that the arrested men were expected to be charged with seven murders, including three which date back 25 years, as well as racketeering, extortion and gambling offences.
These were the first successes in a joint two-year operation. Italian sources say it is only the first battle in a new war against the old-time crime families, an operation they codenamed "Old Bridge".
