The 45-year-old brother of a
local Mafia boss was shot dead in the early hours of Friday in
Belmonte Mezzagno, an agricultural area near Palermo, which has
registered a recent surge in violence, investigative sources
said.
Agostino Alessanfro Migliore, 45, brother of Giovanni, who
was recently arrested and is believed to be the chief aid of
Mafia boss Filippo Bisconti, was killed while he was driving his
car in the town at 5 AM.
Bisconti since December 2018 has been collaborating with
investigators.
Two murders and an attempted murder have been recently
registered in the area, investigative sources said.
