A wanted Mafia boss found living in suburbia could walk free today over legal problems with the warrant for his arrest.
Domenico Rancadore, 64, who is wanted by the Italian authorities, was arrested by British police at his home in Uxbridge, west London, on Wednesday under a European Arrest Warrant.
The father-of-two had been living in the UK as a house husband under the alias Marc Skinner since 1993 while his wife, Anne, ran a travel agency to support the family.
He is due to appear at Westminster Magistrates' Court later where District Judge Quentin Purdy will decide whether he can be allowed bail.
During a short appearance at the same court on Thursday, the judge said: "The warrant may be such it has to be discharged.
Ranacadore was arrested at his home in west London on Wednesday "There are concerns about the validity of the warrant that has come before the court."
Former teacher Rancadore is facing a seven-year term in an Italian jail for being part of a criminal organisation between 1987 and 1995.
He was "a man of honour" in Mafia group Cosa Nostra, controlling Trabia, near Palermo in Sicily, the court heard.
He tried to flee through the back door of his home in Manor Waye when police arrived on Wednesday, but came face to face with a waiting detective constable.
He initially gave police his false name - Skinner is his wife's maiden name - but eventually came clean.
Rancadore, nicknamed "u profissuri" (the teacher) because he was a qualified PE teacher before turning to a life of crime, following in the footsteps of his father Giuseppe, who was also a top Mafia boss and given a life sentence.
He was running a travel agency with his wife and said by Italian police to be "living a golden life" in Britain, with a comfortable home as well as top of the range Jaguar and Mercedes cars.
