A new website called MafiaLeaks, which promises to protect the identities of anyone wanting to inform on the Mafia, has been launched in Italy.
The site is said to be aimed at victims or ex-criminals who would otherwise be too frightened to provide valuable intelligence to police or journalists.
But there are concerns that the site could be abused.
The mafiosi themselves may be able to provide false information anonymously in order to confuse investigations.
