In France, after 16 years of search for large mafiosi Edgaro Greco, who for several years passed out of the chef, BBC reports.
Greco has been on the wanted list since 2006 in the case of the murder of two brothers and attempting to kill another person in 1991. Convicted to life imprisonment, a killer belonging to the Italian Mafia of Ndranget, was detained in the city of St. Etienne in France. The 63-year-old mafiosi lived under the pseudonym Paulo Dimitrio and passed himself as a chef in the local pizzeria for at least three years. He was hiding in this small town near Lyon in the southeast of France since 2014, where he worked in other restaurants.
COMPUTE EDGARO GRECO in St. Etienne is the second arrest of a senior mafiosi by the Italian authorities in a few weeks. In mid -January, during a visit to the clinic in Sicily, Matteo Messina Denaro, who was on the run, was arrested on Sicily.
Greco was wanted in the case of the brutal murder of two brothers during the showdown between the two mafia groups in the early 1990s. The Brothers Stefano and Giuseppe Bartolomeo were killed, allegedly scored to death, in a fish shop in a small town of Kozenz in January 1991. Their bodies were never found, as expected, they were dissolved in acid. Greco was a member of the competing gang, and he was also charged with attempting to kill another person in the same year in the same city.
The Minister of Internal Affairs of Italy Matteo Piantyoshi praised the work of the police, thanks to which one of the most malicious criminals of Italy will be held accountable.
