Pope Francis urged people to fight organised crime such as the "mafias" . He warned that criminals were using coronavirus pandemic for their own benefit."Mafias are present in various part of the world and, taking advantage of the pandemic, they are enriching themselves through corruption," Francis said, speaking at his Sunday noon address on the day Italy remembers victims of organised crime."These structures of sin, mafia structures, are against the gospel and mistake idolatry for faith," the pope added.
