Biography
Bonavota was the son of Vincenzo Bonavota, founder and historical leader of the Bonavota 'ndrina who had been killed in 1997, according to public prosecutor Marisa Manzini. He was already active within the clan since the age of 16, when there was a violent and bloody feud between the Bonavotas of Sant'Onofrio and the Petrolo-Bartolottas of Stefanaconi, consummated with the well-known "Epiphany massacre" in 1991. After being sentenced by the Court of Catanzaro to life imprisonment for mafia-type criminal association and complicity in murder, Bonavota had also been wanted internationally since 2018.
Capture
Bonavota had been a fugitive, which ended on 27 April 2023 when he was arrested in Genoa.
