The Palermo magistrate Clelia Maltese sentenced Matteo Messina Denaro's sister, Rosalia, to 14 years in prison, accused of aggravated mafia association and receiving stolen goods.

The trial took place under the abbreviated procedure.

The woman has been in prison since March 2022. According to the prosecution, represented in the courtroom by prosecutor Gianluca De Leo, she would have helped her brother to escape capture for years and would have managed the "cash" of the mafia "family" on his behalf and the transmission network of the 'pizzini', thus allowing the mafia boss to maintain relations with his men during his long absence.
