Suspected of ordering at least 150 killings, he was convicted in absentia in 1987 of murder and drug trafficking and was sentenced to life imprisonment. Some sources suggested he had undergone plastic surgery to change his appearance, but apart from grayer hair and a more pronounced paunch, the man captured last week bore an unmistakable likeness to an FBI computer-generated drawing based on the last known photograph of Riina, from...
