Police in Palermo arrested Salvatore Milano, known as "Totuccio or Tatieddu", accused of extortion aggravated by the mafia method against a Palermo company that paid for 20 years considering lace as a business cost.

The man is a historic figure belonging to the mafia family of Palermo Centro in which he held, among other things, the role of cashier of the mafia mandamento of Porta Nuova providing for the support of prisoners or those who have recently been released from prison.

He was arrested in 2008 and sentenced by the Court of Appeal of Palermo for mafia assocation following the operation "Perseus", during which it was discovered the first attempt to reconstruct the Palermo Provincial Commission of Cosa Nostra.

In this intent he was instead succeeded by his nephew, Leandro Greco, grandson of the "Pope" Michele Greco.
