Italy’s second most wanted mobster arrives in Rome after 28 years on the run

Rocco Morabito is part of the 'Ndrangheta organized crime syndicate, which does billions of euros in cocaine business

A convicted mobster who was one of Italy's most-wanted fugitives and reputedly one of the world's most powerful drug brokers, has arrived in Rome, following his extradition from Brazil after 28 years on the lam.

Rocco Morabito held the No 2 position on the list of Italy's most wanted and dangerous mobsters. He was convicted two decades ago in absentia of drug trafficking as part of the 'Ndrangheta organized crime syndicate, which does billions of euros in cocaine business.
