The last available images of super-fugitive Matteo Messina Denaro were aired last night on the 8:30 pm edition of Tg2.
The images of the boss, assures the exclusive of Tg2, date back to 2009 and were taken in Agrigento. “Fugitive since 1993 – Tg2 stated – is protected by local mafia bosses.”
Reappeared from the darkness in which it remained shrouded for many years the face of Matteo Messina Denaro, 58 years old, mafia boss also known as Diabolik, and the aliases Alessio and Testa Dell'acqua, disappeared for justice on June 2, 1993. The most wanted fugitive in Italy.
The image of the face, captured by a security camera, was published by Tg2 at 20.30:2009. The images, the report states, were recorded by a street camera in the province of Agrigento, date back to 1993 and are the only ones that investigators and investigators have had since 2009. The video is in the possession of investigators from the Central Anti-Crime Directorate of the Police. In the images, which last a few seconds and date back to December XNUMX, you can see a blue SUV traveling along a dirt road in the middle of the countryside.
There are two people on board: the driver and, in the passenger seat, a balding man with glasses. According to investigators and investigators, the report states, that man could be Matteo Messina Denaro. The images, Tg2 always claims, were filmed by a security camera a few hundred meters from the house of Peter Field, boss of Valley of the Temples and very faithful to the number one of Cosa Nostra who at that time was protected by the Agrigento families and, perhaps, was on his way to a meeting with the local mafia bosses.
Messina Denaro is often talked about, especially with reference to his alleged supporters and the illicit business he conducts while in hiding, but the last time – last July – he was mentioned for a different type of news: the boss has become a grandfather. His daughter Lorenza Alagna, 26 years old, who bears the surname of her mother Francesca and the name of her paternal grandmother, has given birth to a child. Who, however, is not called Matteo, the father that the young woman has never known. Messina Denaro is the boss of the mystery wanted all over the world for mafia association, murder, massacre, devastation, possession and carrying of explosive materials, theft.
Uncatchable because he enjoyed a tight safety net in the Trapani area, also thanks to the enormous availability of money, a network of connivances composed above all of his closest relatives and his acquired ones who gradually fell like skittles overwhelmed by judicial investigations. But there is no trace of him. Some say he is Dubai, or Morocco, or that he has always remained in Sicily, but there are also those who claim that he may even be dead. But is the fugitive boss still in charge? According to the latest report from the DIA, the Anti-Mafia Investigation Directorate, Messina Denaro “he still constitutes the most charismatic criminal figure of the Trapani mafia”.
District head of Castelvetrano, “despite his time in hiding, he remains the main point of reference for deciding the issues of greatest interest to the organisation, for settling disputes and for appointing the heads of the mafia branches”.
It should be noted, however, the DIA emphasizes, that "although 'u siccu' continues to benefit from the loyalty of many associates, there are signs of impatience. Some affiliates are in fact dissatisfied with a command management too busy taking care of the increasingly problematic fugitive status of the boss, also due to the constant investigative action largely aimed at hitting his protection network".
In fact, there have been numerous arrests of supporters, as well as confiscations – “in the amount of billions” – carried out over the years against individuals who gravitate towards Messina Denaro's circle of relations and who have hit mafia assets in the most varied business sectors. The same anti-mafia prosecutor of Palermo, Francesco Lo You, recently recalled how “in the province of Trapani, the investigations coordinated by the DDA between July 2019 and June 2020 have once again recorded mafia power firmly in the hands of the Messina Denaro family, which boasts a high number of its members who have held and still hold roles of absolute importance within the entire mafia province of Trapani”
