Authorities apprehended the fugitive Italian drug lord Rocco Morabito in northeast Brazil on Monday. He escaped two years ago through the roof of a prison in Uruguay, where he was awaiting extradition to Italy.
Rocco Morabito is a top figure in Ndrangheta, a prominent Italian Mafia-type organized crime syndicate based in Calabria.
He was arrested with another Italian fugitive at a hotel room in the city of Joao Pessoa as a result of a joint investigation of Brazil s federal police with Italy, Daily Mail reported. The federal police said that the Italian police traveled to Brazil for the arrest.
