NAPLES, Italy —
A court here convicted 120 people Saturday of being members of the Camorra, the Neapolitan version of the Mafia.
Another 104 were acquitted, and 34 were ordered released because of insufficient evidence. Those convicted were given sentences as long as nine years in prison.
The trial was the second that stemmed from a large-scale police operation in which more than 800 people were arrested on charges of association with the Camorra in 1983.
