Matteo Messina Denaro, the leader of the Cosa Nostra Mafia in Sicily, has been arrested by Italian police after being a fugitive since 1993. Denaro was sentenced to life in prison in absentia in 1992 for his role in the murders of anti-Mafia prosecutors Giovanni Falcone and Paolo Borsellino. Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni said the arrest was “a great victory for the state”, and Denaro is considered one of the most wanted men in Europe.
