The "godfather" Rocco Morabito, considered one of the most powerful drug traffickers in the world, was extradited today in Italy from Brazil.
Morabito was arrested last year in Brazil. He is considered one of the world's most powerful drug traffickers in Brazil, in a joint operation by Italian and Brazilian police forces.
Morabito has been sentenced to 30 years in prison and until yesterday was one of the most dangerous Italian fugitives. Drageta's "godfather" was first arrested at the age of 22 for threatening one of his professors at university. A year later, in the context of a 'mafia civil war', his brother Leo Morabito was murdered. In 1994, he moved to Milan, where he and his uncle took over contacts and negotiations with representatives of Colombian drug trafficking "cartels."
A year later, Rocco Morabito traveled illegally to Brazil and for over twenty years continued to live with a false passport and a false name in various Latin American countries.
In 2017, he was arrested in Uruguay.
