Alessandro Pannunzi, so called “prince” of international drug trafficking son of 'Bebe' Pannunzi. He was arrested in Siderno in 2018 any idea of his current status I couldn't find anything about a conviction?

Pannunzi started to contact Colombian traffickers in Venezuela, Amsterdam and Madrid.[9] He moved to Colombia where he would become one of the most important cocaine brokers for both the Sicilian Mafia and the Calabrian 'Ndrangheta with the Colombian cocaine cartels.[4] According to the deputy chief prosecutor in Reggio Calabria, Nicola Gratteri [it], Pannunzi would become "the only one who can sell both to the 'Ndrangheta and to Cosa Nostra. He is definitely the most powerful drug broker in the world".[15] According to crime writer Roberto Saviano, he traded cocaine to rival Italian crime families: "He collected money from the various families, often rival families.[6]

At the height of his criminal career he was trading 1,500 to 2,000 kilograms of cocaine a month.[4] On a tapped phone, he was overheard boasting of the ease and confidence with which he handled his Colombian suppliers. To reinforce the bonds with his Colombian suppliers, Pannunzi arranged his son Alessandro Pannunzi's marriage with a notorious family from the Medellín Cartel.[4]
