Italian mafia boss Matteo Messina Denaro has been sentenced to life imprisonment. A court in Sicily confirmed this on Wednesday. The Cosa Nostra boss was convicted of murder and terrorism, among other things.
He is said to be behind the 1992 bombings that killed anti-mafia prosecutors Giovanni Falcone and Paolo Borsellino. In addition, other members of the security service were killed.
Denaro was also blamed for the murder of Giuseppe Di Matteo, the 12-year-old son of a mafioso, as well as bombings in Milan, Florence and Rome. The 1993 attacks killed ten people and injured 40 others.
Denaro was reportedly captured in mid-January at a Palermo clinic after 30 years on the run. The 60-year-old is currently in the maximum security prison in L’Aquila. Now he has been sentenced to life imprisonment for his involvement in murders.
