Several Italian mafia bosses such as Francesco Bonura from Sicilian Cosa Nostra; Vincenzo Iannazzo from Ndrangheta have been released from prison under a new coronavirus regulation. They will now be in house arrest. To prevent the spread of the COVID-19 within correctional facilities, the Italian government has authorized magistrates to transfer inmates who have 18 months or less in their sentences to house arrest.
