"Infamous Italian Mafia Boss Messina Denaro Dies After Decades on the Run and Capture"

Matteo Messina Denaro, Italy's most notorious mafia boss, has died at the age of 61 after battling colon cancer. Known as the "Last Godfather," he was arrested earlier this year after 30 years on the run. Messina Denaro was accused of ordering the killings of anti-Mafia magistrates and was feared for his brutal acts of violence. His arrest was seen as a symbolic victory in Italy's fight against organized crime. Despite his deteriorating health, he refused to provide details of his crimes. The Cosa Nostra, the Sicilian mafia group he was said to lead, remains a significant obstacle to a violence-free Sicily and Italy.
