Re: Europe (none / 1)
the capture of mafia bosses- just today Gianni Nicchi and Gaetano Fidanzati, Domenico Raccuglia last

...month.

By the way, who remained at the top? From Wikipedia, it seems only Matteo Messina Denaro and the Riina sons.

Re: Europe (4.00 / 5)
Denaro is the only major mafia boss at large- and the most genial. Riina's sons are small fry. As far as I recall at least one was recaptured. Not all children follow in their father's footsteps. Unlike the 'Ndrangheta and the Camorra, the Sicilan mafia is based on "merit"- not heredity.
