Matteo Messina Denaro, a fugitive from Sicily who has been wanted for 30 years, has finally been captured bringing an end to a major worldไwide man-hunt♈ which bizarrely touched the F1 community two years ago.

A 54-year-old British man from Liverpool was grabbed by police in The Hague, Netherlands, in 2021 because 🍃they incorrectly thought he was Denaro.

Mark L, as the innocent man is known, had a hood pulled over his 𓆏face by the pol💙ice as he ate at a restaurant with his son and a friend.

The Dutch polic🥀e believed that the fugitive mafia boss was in their country - but they were wrong.

Mark L was only in the Netherlands because he attende💎d th👍e F1 Dutch Grand Prix.

His lawyer at the time said: "I was always convinced he was not [the mafia boss]. It would have been a genius of an Itali🌳an to have such a strong Liverpool accent.

"You can imagine. He had anger and disbelief and laughter be🗹cause it is ludicrous. He is a normal Formula One fan."
