Italy arrests Mafia supremo
Provenzano has been on the run for four decades
Tuesday, April 11, 2006
PALERMO, Italy (Reuters) -- Bernardo Provenzano, the undisputed chief of the Sicilian Mafia who had been on the run for more than four decades, was arrested while hiding in a farmhouse near Corleone in Sicily, officials said.
"Thank God. The hunt is finally over," said Palermo police chief Giuseppe Caruso Tuesday after agents nabbed Italy's most wanted man, scoring the state's biggest success against the Mafia in more than 13 years.
Provenzano, known as the "Phantom of Corleone" after his native hill town has been running the Mafia since former "boss of bosses" Toto Riina was arrested in 1993.
He was arrested when police swooped on a farmhouse in the countryside near Corleone. Provenzano, who put up no resistance and acknowledged his identity after first denying it, was flown by helicopter to a secret location in Palermo.
