Almost two weeks ago, the top boss of the Cosa Nostra mafia, Matteo Messina Denaro, was captured in a clinic in Palermo after being on the run for 30 years.
With the passage of time, more details about the life he led have been revealed. Authorities found the apartment in the center of Campobello di Mazara, a town 80 kilometers from the Sicilian capital.
In statements collected by abcthe head of the ROS Carabineros, Pasquale Angelosanto, said that they believe that the hideout he used continuously was a house that would have significant elements.
Matteo Messina Denaro, the last godfather of the Cosa Nostra, lived comfortably and went out daily for coffee and shopping.
One of the mistakes that the authorities hoped not to make again was to allow many days to pass so that the collaborators could hide important documentation, although there is fear due to the wide network they had.
What was found in the hideout demonstrates the luxurious life he led such as branded suits and shoes, perfumes, condoms and even Viagra pills. Also found in the searches were plane tickets, receipts from expensive restaurants, and an extensive collection of Godfather memorabilia and movie posters such as The joker.
During his detention he was wearing a watch valued at more than 30,000 euros.
Messina Denaro liked to go on escapades with her lovers. One of them voluntarily went to the authorities to say that she did not know about his activities and that he was a kind and attentive man. Other people also declared that they knew him, but that they did not know about his criminal life.
The 60-year-old man follows in the footsteps of the historical godfathers of Cosa Nostra, Toto Riina and Bernardo Provenzano, who died in prison in 2017 and 2016 respectively.
In the Spanish environment, the mayor of the town said that his entire town cannot be accused of being a mafioso for the activities of a group of people.
The capo is already in a maximum security prison 120 kilometers from Rome. (YO)
