Overview

• Jean-Pierre Maldera, a former mafia leader from Grenoble, was killed on March 12 in a calculated attack involving gunfire and a car collision on the A41 highway.
• The attackers, using a stolen Mégane RS, fired at Maldera's BMW before ramming him with their car, causing fatal injuries.
• Maldera, once a prominent figure in the Italo-Grenoblois criminal network of the 1980s, had been living a low-profile life for over two decades.
• The attack occurred nearly a decade after the mysterious disappearance of Maldera's brother, Robert, another key figure in the same criminal clan.
• Authorities have launched an investigation into the murder, with the perpetrators still at large and the burned remains of their vehicle found near Grenoble.
