Italian police on Monday said they
had solved three murders and an attempted murder connected to a
Cosa Nostra gang war in central Sicily in the late 1980s and
early 1990s.
Police issued arrest warrants for 12 people included two
Mafia bosses, Piddu Madonia and Antonio Rinzivillo, in
connection with the 1989 murder of Francesco Pepi, a shopkeeper
slain in 1989 after refusing to pay protection money and urging
other businessmen to follow his suit.
Investigators said they now knew who carried out that hit as
well as two vendetta killings and an attempted murder during a
turf war between the cities of Caltanissetta and Gela 25 years
ago.
