Totò Schillaci , the former top scorer of the 1990 World Cup , was one of the direct witnesses of the arrest of super- fugitive Matteo Messina Denaro , which took place yesterday morning in the La Maddalena clinic in Palermo .

"I was in the hospital, I was waiting to get in ... it must have been more or less 8.15, then I saw all the masked, hooded carabinieri arrive and they blocked us all," the former bomber told the press.

When the raid by the Carabinieri del Ros Schillaci began, he was in the structure to undergo visits, then the arrival of the military: "I was in the bar area and I didn't even go inside because I was smoking a cigarette when I saw them arrive and they stopped us. They told us to stay where we were. It looked like a madhouse , it looked like a scene from the Far West ».

But other testimonies have circulated. “ He had chemo with me every Monday . We were even in the same room, he was a kind person, very kind ». So a woman told Tv2000 that she shared chemotherapy sessions with Messina Denaro in the private clinic. « Some friends of mine have his telephone number . He texted everyone. He has been exchanging messages with a friend of mine until this morning. She is now in shock a

home".

" He was called Andrea ," the woman continues. «I did chemo with a boss, incredible! I had therapy from May to November. We did therapy together all summer and he even came in a long sleeved shirt.'
