  Salvatore Lima - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Lima had originally wished to appoint a judge of his own choice, Corrado Carnevale, who was referred to as "the sentence killer" because of his notorious habit of overturning convictions for Mafiosi on the slighest of technicalities.
Lima was therefore of no further use to the Mafia, and if he knew all their secrets, he was a potential liability.
According to Buscetta: "Salvo Lima was, in fact, the politician to whom Cosa Nostra turned most often to resolve problems for the organisation whose solution lay in Rome." These claims that Lima had assisted the Mafia in return for bribes and help rigging local elections were backed up by many other Mafia informants.

 Chairman Gonzalo on Trial in Peru
This trial will be the opening salvo of a whole legal assault which the Peruvian state is gearing up to launch against Chairman Gonzalo.
Leading Lima reactionaries argued that if these political prisoners are not retried and given new prison terms, many could soon be free, either through court action or because they have served the legal minimum sentences.
Yet because this trial is to be held in a special ultra-high security courtroom on the Callao naval base near Lima where Chairman Gonzalo has been held, it is far from clear which "public" will be admitted and what kind of coverage the media will be allowed to provide.

 "Da capo del governo combattè Cosa Nostra". Quel legame con Lima   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-16)
È vero che il forte legame politico sviluppatosi tra Giulio Andreotti e Salvo Lima si tradusse in un "rapporto fiduciario tra i due soggetti", ma questo sodalizio non prova un inserimento del senatore in una condotta di concorso esterno all'associazione mafiosa.
I collaboratori, che hanno parlato dei contatti di Lima con Andreotti, hanno detto di non essere a conoscenza di "specifiche iniziative favorevoli a Cosa nostra adottate da Andreotti su richiesta di Lima".
Gli elementi raccolti, in pratica, non dimostrano che l'imputato abbia consapevolmente determinato, d' accordo con Lima, "la trasformazione della corrente andreottiana in una struttura di servizio dell'associazione mafiosa", come aveva sostenuto l' accusa, nè che abbia mobilitato le articolazioni interne della corrente per la soluzione dei problemi che interessavano Cosa nostra.

 The Sicilian Mafia and political corruption
In 1992 the mafia assassinated Salvo Lima a prominent Sicilian DC politician who, allegedly, had been one of the key figures in representing mafia interests in Rome.
Lima, instead, was considered to be one of its closes friends in power… his murder was a profound embarrassment to the Christian Democratic Party.
Given Lima’s close ties to Andreotti, it was as though the mafia had dumped a dead body on the prime minister’s doorstep as a sinister warning.” (1995: 351)

Il tribunale è convinto del contrario e sviluppa le sue argomentazioni a partire dal fatto che i Salvo offrirono sul piano politico un "sostegno aperto ed efficace (seppure non esclusivo) a diversi esponenti della corrente andreottiana, sulla base dello stretto rapporto di collaborazione e di amicizia personale che essi avevano instaurato" con l'onorevole Salvo Lima.
Al quarto punto il tribunale ricorda che in un' agendina di Nino Salvo era annotato il numero di telefono di Andreotti.
E al quinto sottolinea il fatto che l' ex presidente del Consiglio per i suoi spostamenti in Sicilia utilizzò un' automobile blindata di proprietà della società dei Salvo data in prestito a Lima.

I cugini esattori Nino e Ignazio Salvo erano, secondo il tribunale, "profondamente inseriti in Cosa nostra" e hanno offerto un "sostegno aperto ed efficace (seppure non esclusivo) a diversi esponenti della corrente andreottiana".
I rapporti di Lima con la mafia cominciarono negli anni '60 e proseguirono fino all' inizio degli anni '90.

Giulio Andreotti, secondo i magistrati, avrebbe avuto stretti rapporti con la famiglia Salvo (gli esattori di Cosa Nostra)e con Salvo Lima (l'ex sindaco palermitano ucciso nel '92), avebbe appoggiato Michele Sindona, sarebbe stato il garante di Vito Ciancimino.

I magistrati affermano inoltre che il tribunale avrebbe compiuto una valutazione isolata delle prove e non avrebbe tenuto conto in modo coerente dei "riscontri in realtà emersi nel dibattimento".

 Guardian | Vito Ciancimino
Ciancimino was councillor for public works (1959-1964), when Salvo Lima, the representative of Giulio Andreotti, was mayor of Palermo; he oversaw the destruction of the city's green belt, and villas that gave it architectural grace, to make way for characterless apartment blocks.
In 1992, following the mafia murders of Lima, the anti-mafia judge Giovanni Falcone, and his colleague Paolo Borsellino, Ciancimino offered to infiltrate the mafia and negotiate a solution to terrorist aggression against the Italian state.
He may even have contributed to the 1993 arrest of the boss of bosses, Salvatore "Toto" Riina, whose removal cleared the ground for Bernardo Provenzano, a wilier and less bloodthirsty boss from Corleone, whose name has been linked to that of Ciancimino.
