The most important thing about this commandment is that every gangster puts his life in a serious
danger when he introduces another person to the family because he will be responsible of the
conduct of the new person.
Another important thing, it’s that if gangster introduces the other person as “ a friend of ours” it
means the person is already part of the family, but if he uses the expression “A friend of mine” the
rest of the members will take care about it.

9. When someone asks for any information, the answer must be the truth.

people who say a less number of lies.
