Domenico Oppedisano will be a free man very soon, in December he turns 90. He was informally chosen as Chief Criminal, the ceremonial head of the 'Ndrangheta, at a marriage of two children of bosses attended by 2,000 people. The marriage was between Elisa Pelle, daughter of Giuseppe Pelle, and granddaughter of Antonio Pelle of San Luca, known as Gambazza, former crime chief, and of Giuseppe Barbaro, head of the homonymous' ndrina of Platì. 'Ndrangheta is so secretive that the replacement for Oppedisano is not known.
