Matteo Messina Denaro's sister Rosalia was found guilty of helping the late fugitive Cosa Nostra superboss during his 30-year run from justice by a judge in Palermo on Thursday and given a 14-year prison sentence at the end of a fast-track trial.
    The woman has been in prison since March last year.
    According to investigators, she helped her brother evade capture and managed on his behalf the 'cash box' of the mafia 'family' and the transmission network of the 'pizzini' (orders), thus allowing the mafia leader to maintain relations with his men during his long period on the run.
    Messina Denaro was caught in mid-January last year while leaving a clinic where he was being treated for cancer in Palermo.
    He died in a hospital in L'Aquila on September 25 aged 62.
    Messina Denaro had been convicted for his involvement in dozens of murders, including the 1992 Cosa Nostra bombings that killed anti-Mafia magistrates Giovanni Falcone and Paolo Borsellino.
    In addition to the Falcone and Borsellino assassinations, he was convicted of the killing of Giuseppe Di Matteo, the 12-year-old son of a mobster-turned-State witness who was strangled and dissolved in acid in 1996, and bombings at art and religious sites in Milan, Florence and Rome that killed 10 people and hurt 40 more in 1993.
