Anyone who spent some time in Southern Italy knows only unimportant members of mafia are arrested, big bosses get protection by the government facilitating their crimes. The only time bosses are arrested is when stronger countries want them, or during the wars between different clans if too many people start dying. War on mafia functions the same as war on drugs; they will not succeed until society makes very big changes.

Is it truth

Bullet proof office windows but in the corridor they are open ?

[@loquimi]

The office has closed windows because it is probably in front of a main street. The corridor is alongside an inner courtyard, probably at the second or third floor and without any angles to fire a shot from the outside, despite that would be still possible from the inner courtyard to have a clean visual, but that place is probably over surveilled. They could have a fire angle only flying over the building with a helicopter and that is extremely unlikely to happen.
