Brother of Palermo Mafia boss killed
Agostino Alessandro Migliore, 45, shot dead

The mafia returns to kill in Belmonte Mezzagno, a new ambush in the agricultural center a few kilometers from Palermo, which for months has been at the center of a bloody feud with two murders and an attempted murder.

At dawn he was killed with shots in his car Agostino Alessandro Migliore, 45 years old, Giovanni's brother, boss arrested in the operation "Cupola 2.0". The ambush took place in via Togliatti, around five o'clock.

The victim was in his Audi when the killers went into action.

Evidently there are those who try to send messages to Filippo Bisconti who is collaborating with justice, some people say.

The victim is the brother of Giovanni Migliore, who ran a supermarket, is believed to be the trusted man of the boss Filippo Bisconti, who has chosen to collaborate with justice since December 2018. The boss is currently on trial in the investigation called Cupola 2.0 which revealed the mafia's attempt to reconstitute the provincial commission and reconstructed the organization charts of the mandates of Tommaso natale, Porta Nuova, Pagliarelli, Misilmeri, Belmonte Mezzagno and Villabate.

The murder of Migliore is the fourth episode of blood in a year: on 10 January 2019, Vincenzo Greco, son-in-law of the boss Casella, was killed; then on May 8, the killers killed the accountant Antonio Di Liberto, brother of the former mayor and cousin of the repentant Bisconti.

The last ambush in chronological order, before the murder this morning, dates back to 2 December, when two killers fired in the crowd, in the main street of the town, to try to kill the building contractor Giuseppe Benigno. As part of the investigation into the feud, the carabinieri had arrested four people a month ago, including Salvatore Tumminia believed to be the new Mafia boss of Belmonte Mezzagno.
