the arrest of Toto 'Riina: TEN YEARS LATER, STILL MYSTERY
Via Gianlorenzo Bernini and' isolated via a discreet, full of villas hidden by the surrounding walls. A perfect place for those who want to hide but will not disappear, because it 's just a step to the center of Palermo and close to the motorway. In one of those houses, at number 54, has spent ten years of his life, nearly half 'of the fugitive, the boss of bosses of the Cosa Nostra, Toto' Riina. . He called Joseph Bellomo, said to be of Mazara del Vallo. A luxurious house, with pool and internal elevator, a safe course. But it was not his. The property 'was and' the brothers Giuseppe and Gaetano Sansone still under investigation for the quell'appoggio superboss. Riina was paying the rent regularly and also the bills: paid with cashier's checks. A quiet life until then in January of ten years ago.
is not yet known with certainty where and 'got the information, the fact is that the police now know where the Ros' hidden Toto' Riina. But they know also that it will not be 'easy to catch him and called the raid "Operation Beast." From Wednesday 'Jan. 13 front nine lurk in the mansion. The nucleus, which is called Crimor and 'controlled by "Captain Ultimo. With him are Archer, Viking, Pirate, Oscar. Omar, Nello, Barbaro and Shadow. The names, yet today, shall be confidential.
A day of waiting. Then, the next morning, at 10.14 on January 14, the gate of the villa comes a car. Perhaps with the police there 's also Di Maggio. Sure and 'recognized the woman inside: and' Ninette Bagarella, the wife of Toto 'Riina. The last confirmed: the den and 'just that. They spend a little less than twenty four hours. And here is certainly historic moment in the fight against the Mafia. 8:55 am on January 15, 1993. Leaves a small car, anonymous. At the wheel there 'Blond Salvatore, the driver of the boss, and close to himself, the beast, Toto' Riina. " At that moment feel like an empty feeling "confide, 'then the captain Ultimo. The nine of
Crimor follow the car, slipped on a Leonardo da Vinci, at the roundabout, traffic, and 'intense, a few meters in front of the motel Agip block the car. The operation 'duration around fifteen minutes and a mile. The disappearance of the chief leaders of what our end here after 23 years, six months and eight days, on the same platform where fifteen years before he Riina assassinate mafioso Beppe Di Cristina. Then they called him only "Uncle Toto'''but by assassination shares' his climb to the Cosa Nostra. Having just where and 'became chief. It was
unarmed when he was caught. The police are asking for documents. The other will be '(is false), not him, does not open his mouth. Bring them to the barracks. These are the first pictures of the beast in a cage. It 'so still, that seems impassive snapshot. Even he realizes he is under the photo of General Dalla Chiesa. The then Colonel Mario Mori, now director of SISDE, said looking him straight in the face: "You are Riina. He remains silent for long. Mori insists, he finally admits: "It 'are Riina. Call a lawyer . In the evening, dinner, and refuses to eat the next day. It takes just coffee '. Now it seems just an old man, 'Toto' u curto. They take him in secret, at night, Termini Imerese. They begin the questions. On that day the prosecutor of Palermo and 'come Giancarlo Caselli. Short Cut to the controversy: "It 'was a textbook operation. And a great day for justice . Caselli and 'just arrived from Turin, the city' where shortly before he unveiled in May, perhaps, the lair of the beast, even as he called it "the butcher right", as confirmed publicly Mario Mori ..
At ten in the morning two days later, on January 17, Riina left Sicily and reviews from the helicopter land where for many years he has lorded it like a tyrant. As if by magic to reappear Corleone's wife, Ninette Bagarella, and four children, what looked like a family ghost. Toto 'Riina and now' in supercarcere Marino del Tronto, but in recent years has often toured Italy for the hearings of the various processes, accumulating a life sentence after another, the last for the murder of Judge Saetta. He knows he was betrayed, he hates the repentant. Once, April 22, 1996, in Florence Pierluigi Vigna Giancarlo Caselli and tried to make him talk. Chilling transcript of the minutes. " Talking? Doctor, please, stop here, not even pronounce that word. You got the wrong person ". In recent years, and 'also returned to Palermo, but in a cage. He spoke only to say his hatred of the speaker.
Ten years later, there are still many mysteries. Meanwhile, a doubt remains as to who has made a real contribution to the catch. A great work of intelligence, which lasted, they say, at least one hundred days? Or, as stated in general Delfino (code-named "Jaguar a"), then investigated for other stories, the revelations were crucial in the boss of a small accident, Baldassare Di Maggio? But there 's also who among the repentant, and claims that all' born of a tip from an informer of Marshal Anthony Lombardo, then kills himself. Giovanni Brusca added to the betrayal 'Toto' Cancemi to Bagarella Lojacono by Francis, a loyalist of Provenzano.
Doubts over 'major concern, however, the next phase arrest. The den is still in progress two judicial inquiries: First, as we said, concerns the owners of the villa, the second and 'against unknown and relates to the failure of the searched home. Just yesterday, the investigating judge requested further investigations Vincent Massa, seeking to interview all those involved in the affair. Casey himself admits: "We discussed whether agreed to enter the lair now, or more 'late to find other mobsters. As we suggested' Captain Last . Now "Last" and 'is greater and the department of environmental police. The lair in reality ', was abandoned after only one day. The search finally added 'more than eighteen days' later. Too many. You do not find 'more' no, the house was empty. Tell classroom August 28, 1997 Angelo Siino the Mafia: "I Corleone came dressed as workers, they took away the furniture, paint walls, also changed the toilet, they disappear safe." It seems that the head of that group there fosse.Antonino Giuffre ', the latest sorry, Lieutenant historic Provenzano. Supports Tescaroli pm: "Behind the arrest of Riina are many shadows, doubts and uncertainties' that could reveal only Provenzano . Meanwhile, you may begin to tell Giuffre '.
