Matteo Messina Denaro had been on the run for 30 years.
The 60-year-old was arrested after visiting a health clinic in the Sicilian capital Palermo where he was being treated, and surrendered without putting up a fight, officials said.
The mobster, who had been on the run since 1993, was believed to have been undergoing periodic treatment for colon cancer, and was using a false ID. Chief prosecutor Maurizio De Lucia confirmed that despite his fugitive status, he had been an"operative boss", with"contacts and economic resources". Among other crimes, he was convicted in absentia of being behind the 1993 bombings in Rome, Milan and Florence that killed 10 people.
"He is the essence of the great historical power of Cosa Nostra. The myths around his period on the run are part of the reason why the Mafia myth endures."
