An unidentified Liverpool man will rest easy tonight knowing the net has finally snared his Sicilian mob boss lookalike.
Finally, after 30-years on the run, Italy's most-wanted mafia boss Matteo Messina Denaro has been captured, reports the BBC. Denaro was said to have been detained at a private clinic in Sicily's capital, Palermo, this morning in an operation involving more than 100 members of Italy's armed forces.
The mafia boss became a fugitive in 1993, and in 2010, Forbes Magazine listed him as one of the 10 most wanted men in the world. With so many eyes on the lookout for the Italian underworld crime boss, it was in 2021 that an unwitting Liverpool man became the unintended target of a sting operation.
