"The conditions of Matteo Messina Denaro are very serious".
This was stated by the lawyer Lorenza Guttadauro, trusted lawyer as well as nephew of the mafia boss.
“I don't think the cell can be compared to a doctor's office. I don't know if they are treating him well », explained the lawyer again.
The former number one of Cosa Nostra - arrested last January 16 in Palermo after thirty years on the run - was interrogated for the first time two days ago inside the maximum security prison in L'Aquila, where he is held under regime of 41bis. For over an hour he answered questions from the prosecutor Maurizio De Lucia and the deputy Paolo Guido, who found the prisoner "lucid, serene and with all the necessary care".
Messina Denaro is undergoing chemotherapy sessions in prison for the treatment of colon cancer. The last administration took place in early February, with the boss who, according to prison and health sources, appeared to the doctors in good shape.
