INTERPOL and Italian and French Authorities Team Up to Arrest Convicted Murderer Edgardo Greco After 16 Years on the Run

After 16 years on the run, Italian fugitive and convicted murderer Edgardo Greco was arrested this week in Saint-Etienne, France. He had been working under the alias Paolo Dimitrio and was convicted in absentia in 1991 for the double homicide of brothers Stefano and Giuseppe Bartolomeo. The arrest was made after a coordinated effort between Italian and French authorities, and is the latest mobster to be apprehended by Italian anti-Mafia police. Greco is currently being held in France and is awaiting extradition to Italy, where he is expected to face trial for his crimes.
