Federal investigators have launched an investigation into a secretive deal with large international big fish, potentially linked to the Casella crime family. Details remain closely guarded by sources close to the investigation. One source says they believe the deal to involve tens of millions of dollars. Large political influences may also be at play, mainly with Eastern European crime syndicate lead by Erhan Kara.

​

The Casella family, long suspected of orchestrating illicit operations ranging from narcotics, arms deals, and white collar fraud, are maintaining an extremely low profile compared to recent years. According to leaked information obtained by The Harbinger, federal authorities will now pursue leads suggesting the family are heavily involved in illegal cocaine shipments from Eastern Europe.

​

“If you’re caught up in this, you’re going to need one hell of a lawyer,” said an anonymous source, alluding to the complexity and scale of the operation. “It looks like London is not enough for the Casella King and he’s looking to grow.”

The alleged deal reportedly occurred last year which also involved their long lost half-brother, Rafael Casella Guerra. Investigators are currently focusing on shipments coming into all ports and keeping a close eye on Ezra Casella’s movements. Although no arrests have been made, surveillance footage was obtained two weeks earlier, showcasing high-level associates of the family meeting with an unknown individual in a secluded private club in Shoreditch.

Ezra Casella has made a statement denying any and all illegal activity, calling the allegations “a smear campaign built on years of mistrust.”

​

Their lawyer, who is closely tied to the famous Judge Gordon states “When all is revealed in cold, hard facts, I have no doubt my client will be fully exonerated.”

“We cannot comment on what we have found but if this proves our theories to be true, London as we know it will change overnight,” said the head of the Federal Police.

​

As all scrutiny falls on the Casella family, the city remains watching in anticipation. If Ezra Casella and his family are behind this secret deal, it could mark one of the most daring criminal transactions the city has ever seen.
