Italy’s most-wanted mafia boss Matteo Messina Denaro arrested after 30 years January 16, 2023 at 12:25AM

A 60-year-old Sicilian mobster, Matteo Messina Denaro, is captured by Italian anti-mafia police on Monday. Denaro is believed to have become the "boss of bosses" following the death of Salvatore "The Beast" Riina in November 2022. Denaro is the most significant mafia boss in Italy and his arrest in his native Sicily is a great victory for the state in its war against organized crime.
