^^^^ What appears to be definitive, as opposed to rumour, is that Francesco Del Balso had his passport seized when he was arrested at the Montréal-Trudeau International Airport, from where he was supposedly planning to fly to Italy. I’m assuming that he is still being detained so that he can’t try to flee again, with a stronger reason being that he was targeted in the recent drug investigation that mostly involved the Hells.
Apparently he knew for a week after the attempt on Leonardo Rizzuto’s life that his own life was in danger — this is according to what Del Balso was allegedly told by individuals in the underworld with whom he is close, with these same individuals apparently also having encouraged him to flee Canada.
