		</div><p>Authorities in Rome are looking into whether buildings confiscated from the Mafia can be used to house migrants.</p>
<p>The move follows violent clashes when police tried to evacuate a building occupied by squatting migrants.</p>
<p>Mayor Virginia Raggi said city officials are mapping out the confiscated real estate to determine if any buildings are suitable for temporary housing.</p>
<p>Authorities and police in Rome have come under fire after officers used water cannons against asylum seekers last week.</p>
<p>The migrants, mostly from Eritrea and Ethiopia, had camped out on a central piazza after being evicted from a building they had occupied since 2013.</p>
<p>Police said the raids were necessary because the migrants had cooking gas canisters and other flammable materials.</p>
<p>The UN refugee agency denounced the evictions, especially when adequate alternative housing arrangements were not provided.</p>
