Patrizio Bosti

Patrizio Bosti (Naples, September 5, 1959) is a powerful Italian Camorra boss and head of the Bosti clan, a Camorra crime syndicate based in the city of Naples. His nickname is "'o Patrizio". Bosti and his clan are aligned with the long established Licciardi and Contini Camorra clans. The power, influence and wealth his clan held allowed Bosti to become one of the top Camorra leaders within the Secondigliano Alliance (Alleanza di Secondigliano) of leading Naples area clans. Bosti was included on the list of most wanted fugitives in Italy and had been a fugitive from 2005, but was eventually arrested on August 10, 2008, in Girona, Spain. He was spotted when he took a flight from Naples to Barcelona a week before and traced to nearby Girona, where he was spending some time in a luxurious villa. Bosti was convicted in absentia of heading a clan of the Naples-based Camorra crime syndicate and sentenced to 23 years in prison for the murder of two rival mobsters during a feud in 1984. He was later extradited to Italy to face the murder charges.
