resume
Gratteri was born the third of five children into a family with a modest background. After graduating from high school, he enrolled in the Law Faculty of the University of Catania . He graduated after four years and began his career two years later at the Magistrate in Reggio Calabria .
Currently, Gratteri is one of the most famous public prosecutors of the Direzione Distrettuale Antimafia . Gratteri has been under personal protection since April 1989 due to his excellent position in the fight against the Calabrian mafia 'Ndrangheta . On June 21, 2005, the special task force Raggruppamento Operativo Speciale of the Carabinieri discovered an arsenal of weapons (one kilogram of plastic explosives with a detonator, rocket launcher , Kalashnikovs , hand grenades) on the plain of Gioia Tauro , which could possibly be used for an attack against Gratteri.
He is considered to be one of the best experts on the entanglements between investigation, justice and the penal system that strengthened the three major Italian mafia groups.
He took part in various television discussions of the Rai , also to present his books Fratelli di sangue , La Malapianta and La giustizia è una cosa seria . He pointed out how the wiretapping measures could be improved with a few free resources.
