Ex-girlfriend 'betrays' Cosa Nostra boss, authorities look for other 'girlfriend'

At a time when the investigations in Italy for the arrest of the mafia boss Matteo Messina Denaro continue with intensity for the discovery of collaborators or other connections of the criminal organization, another development has surprised the Italian authorities.

A woman voluntarily went to the authorities and declared before the prosecutors that she had a relationship with the mafia boss Matteo Messina Denaro for a long time. She said that she did not know him by this name, but that she managed to identify him only after his photo was published on television after his arrest.

However, her version did not convince the agents who organized a check in the apartment of the woman, whose identity has not yet been disclosed.

But the investigations don't stop here, the investigators are looking for another "girlfriend" of the boss with whom he has been visiting while staying in San Vito. It is suspected that it is about a middle-aged woman, who still has not admitted to having had contact with Messina Denaro.

The 60-year-old was arrested on January 16, after 30 years on the run, in the town of Campobello di Mazara. The Italian police there also discovered 3 secret bunkers and a number of documents.

Another interesting discovery about the mafia boss is that after his capture, some books were found that he kept ready to transport from one hideout to another.

Among these books were biographies of deceased dictators and current autocrats. More specifically, the life of Vladimir Putin and that of Hitler, novels, texts from philosophy and current affairs.

Together with them, luxury objects, jewelry and precious stones, viagra, clothes of well-known brands, exclusive perfumes, but above all documents with phone numbers, numbers and a series of cards for certain people were seized.
