The sentence that the 66-year-old boss Diego Mancuso from Limbadi will have to serve in prison goes from six to two years. The Catanzaro Court of Appeal has in fact accepted a request for a "continued" sentence between the "Genesis" trial and the "Dinasty" trial against the prisoner, who was arrested last May to serve a final sentence of 6 years for mafia association.
In the "Dinasty " trial, Diego Mancuso was recognized at the top of one of the branches into which the family had divided after the arrests for the "Tirreno" operation (1993) of the Dda of Reggio Calabria, of the bosses Luigi and Giuseppe Mancuso( cl. '49), respectively uncle and nephew. Diego Mancuso (brother of Giuseppe, aka Peppe 'Mbroggja ") together with his nephew Domenico Mancuso (son of Giuseppe Mancuso) for a given time span would have governed the clan headed by him, as opposed to the other branch of the family that saw at that time allies Cosmo Michele Mancuso and his nephew Pantaleone Mancuso, called "Scarpuni".
After serving the sentence for "Dinasty", at the time of release, Diego Mancuso had moved his residence to Santa Maria di Ricadi. Last May, therefore, the new arrest to serve the definitive sentence remedied in the "Genesis" trial now reduced to two years.
