The Licciardi clan has a stronghold in the Secondigliano district, but also branches in Campania, in other regions of Italy and alliances abroad.
Maria Licciardi is the recipient of a prosecutor's arrest and must answer for criminal association of a mafia type, extortion, receiving stolen sums of money and disruption of the regular conduct of a judicial auction, crimes aggravated by mafia methods.
