ROME Cheap Nike Air Max 90 , July 19 (Xinhua) -- Twenty-five years after he was killed by mobsters, top anti-mafia judge Paolo Borsellino was commemorated with various initiatives across Italy on Wednesday.
Italian President Sergio Mattarella led a special ceremony to honor the slain magistrate at the High Council of the Judiciary (CSM) in Rome, appealing for a "a final word of justice" in the long path to identity and condemn masterminds and authors of his killing.
"Borsellino fought the mafia with resolution, convinced as he was that the mafia is not an ineluctable evil, but a criminal phenomenon that can be defeated," Mattarella told the CSM.
The president also stressed that "too many uncertainties and mistakes have accompanied the search for truth on this slaughter Cheap Nike Air Max , and still many questions about those responsible for his heinous killing are open."
Paolo Borsellino was killed on July 19, 1992, in a car bombing in Palermo, along with five police officers of his escort.
"His tragic death, along with the deaths of those escorting him, still awaits a final word of justice Cheap Air Max 2018 ," Mattarella told the CSM.
Borsellino's murder occurred 57 days after the killing of fellow top anti-mafia magistrate Giovanni Falcone, in a similar bomb on a motorway in Sicily.
Borsellino and Falcone had developed new methods of investigating the mafia since the early 1980s, reaching unprecedented results against what was the most powerful crime syndicate at the time: the Sicilian mob, or "Cosa Nostra."
Their murders represented the most brutal attack by the Sicilian mafia against Italy's state and judiciary, and marked one of the darkest moments in the country's recent history.
Commemorating Borsellino in Parliament on Wednesday, Senate Speaker Pietro Grasso -- a former anti-mafia prosecutor himself -- told lawmakers: "We have defeated the 'Cosa Nostra' violent and bloodthirsty Cheap Air Max 2017 , but not that (part of) mafia that is able to change its skin and disappear from the public opinion's eye, and to infiltrate all levels of Italian society," he warned.
As is common on this date, several events to honor Borsellino's life were held by anti-mafia and civil society groups across Italy.
Key celebrations were planned in Palermo, Sicily's regional capital where the magistrate was born and began his career in the judiciary.
Citizens, national and local politicians Cheap Air Max 90 , and public officers marched through the street where Borsellino was killed.
Besides achieving results in the fight against the economic and criminal power of the three major mafia organizations operating in the country -- Cosa Nostra, Naples-based Camorra, and Calabrian 'Ndrangheta -- Italy has seen stronger anti-mafia awareness develop in its civil society.
However, the full truth about the slaughter of Borsellino has yet to be discovered, according to both his relatives and major anti-mafia experts.
Three trials have been held since 1994, resulting in some 47 people being convicted in connection with his murder.
A fourth trial began in 2013 Cheap Air Max , after new allegations by a mafia informer on the true masterminds and deep reasons behind the slaughter of the magistrate.
This first-grade trial ended in April 2017. Two mafia bosses were sentenced to life in prison for being among the perpetrators, and another two mobsters to 10 years in jail for giving testimonies that misled previous investigations.
Some aspects of Borsellino's murder (as much as of Falcone's), however, have remained a mystery so far.
These include the disappearance of the red diary in which Borsellino used to write down details of his work during the year of his death.
