Italy’s most-wanted mafia boss Matteo Messina Denaro escorted by police after capture

Sicilian godfather Matteo Messina Denaro is escorted out of a police station by officers and transferred to a minivan.

Denaro's capture in Palermo ended a 30-year manhunt for Italy's most wanted fugitive - a leading figure in Cosa Nostra, the real-life Sicilian crime syndicate depicted in the Godfather movies.

The mobster was caught inside a health facility where he had gone for therapeutic treatment for his colon cancer.
