Matteo Messina Denaro's lair is in Campobello di Mazara, Trapani. After hiding ofr thirty years, he was apprehended on Monday morning at the Maddalena clinic in Palermo. The hiding site, which the carabinieri del Ros sought all night for, is in the middle of the town of Giovanni Luppino, the facilitator who was arrested yesterday while escorting the boss to the hospital. A town located a few kilometers from Castelvetrano, the town where Messina Denaro originates. Three decades ago, the lair of Tot Riina was not immediately examined upon arrest, which led to suspicions and a trial, which resulted in the acquittal of the deputy commander of the Ros, Mario Mori, and captain "Ultimo" on charges of supporting the mafia. Messina Denaro would have been the protector of the so-called "treasure" of Tot Riina, or the secret papers that the Corleone mafia boss stored in his hiding spot before to his capture, according to the testimony of multiple penitents. According to Il Centro, the boss, who flew at Pescara airport last night on a military jet, may have been transported to the Costarelle jail in L'Aquila. Inevitably, thoughts return to the awful atrocities that took place in 1992, on which Messina Denaro left his mark.
