Gaetano Riina, the 88-year-old
younger brother of late Mafia boss of bosses Salvatore Totò
Riina, has been moved from jail to house arrest due to severe
health problems, judicial sources said Wednesday.
Riina will be moved to an undisclosed location in Sicily, they
said.
Totò Riina, known for a ruthless murder campaign that reached a
peak in the early 1990s with the assassinations of antimafia
prosecutors Giovanni Falcone and Paolo Borsellino, resulting in
a public outcry and a major crackdown by the authorities, died
in jail in November 2017 at the age of 87.
Gaetano Riina is serving life for Mafia crimes.
