Video shows Italy mafia boss found hiding in secret room

Footage of a fugitive mafia boss caught hiding in a secret compartment in his own home after five years on the run has been released by Italian police.

It took agents several hours to dislodge Antonio Pelle, 54, from his hideout between a bedroom and a bathroom, before arresting him.

Pelle, known as "Mamma", was first held in 2008 but escaped three years later when he was sent to hospital.

He faces 20 years in jail if convicted for drugs and arms smuggling.
