Rapper Emis Killa is set to perform
at the Sanremo Song Festival next month even though he has been
ordered by Milan's police chief Bruno Megale not to attend
sporting events, including football matches, for the next three
years over his involvement in an anti-Mafia probe into AC Milan
and Inter Milan ultra leaders, Milan daily Corriere della Sera
reported on Wednesday.
Killa, a 35-year-old AC Milan fan whose real name is Emiliano
Rudolf Giambelli, is being probed on criminal association
charges.
The artist, who will attend Sanremo with his new song Demoni
(Demons), is being probed by DDA anti-Mafia investigators along
with members of organized fan groups over their alleged
involvement in criminal affairs that led to 19 arrests back in
September, wrote Corriere della Sera, noting on its front page
how he is considered "too dangerous to enter a stadium but he
can serenely perform at Sanremo".
According to investigators, Killa was identified with 14 other
ultra fans while hitting a steward at the stadium and he is
allegedly friends with ultra leaders involved in the probe
including Fabiano Capuzzo and Luca and Francesco Lucci with whom
he "manages a barber's shop in Monza".
He reportedly posts on social media photos with people who are
suspected by investigators of being close to Calabria's
organized crime such as Alfonso Cuturello and Antonio Favasuli.
