Mafia informer photographed on cruise
The Associated Press
ROME — As Italy's No. 1 informer against the Mafia, Tomasso Buscetta has lived for years under protection and with a false identity in the United States between trips to Italy to testify.
So it came as a surprise to many that a man whose face rarely has been seen was photographed and interviewed while on a cruise with his family in the Mediterranean.
Oggi magazine, a weekly that
features photos of celebrities, said it received a tip and put a photographer on the ship.
After the magazine began promoting its scoop Tuesday, Italian authorities removed Buscetta from the cruise ship before dawn yesterday and took him to an undisclosed location for his own protection, sald Antonio De Rosa, an official of the shipping line.
News reports said he was whisked away by a military helicopter, but officials would not

According to Oggi, Buscetta was making the cruise aboard the Monterey to fulfill a promise to his second wife, Cristina. They were accompanied by their two children.
false name in Naples, with body-guards. The ship stopped in Greece, Turkey, Israel and Egypt and was due in Catania, in Buscutella's native Sicily, today.
He reportedly boarded under a
Photos in the magazine, which hit newstands yesterday, showed Busceta by the pool, visiting the Western Wall in Jerusalem and touring on the Greek island of Rhodes.
Italian newspapers questioned whether Buscetta's presence on the cruise liner posed a threat to
the other 600 passengers on board.
Paolo Grasso, director of Italy's witness protection program, defended Buscetta and said the cruise was not paid for with government money.
"He's a free man," Grasso told RAL-TV.
Oggi quoted Buscetta as saying he planned to testify at the trial next month of former Premier Giulio Andreotti, who is accused of Mafia ties.
Active volcano forces evacuation
The Associated Press
PLYMOUTH, Montserrat — In a predawn radio broadcast yesterday, the governor ordered residents of this Caribbean capital to flee what could be a major volcanic eruption. By yesterday's daybreak, even the police station was closed.
Scientists gave the Soufiere Hills volcano, two miles northeast of the capital, a 70 percent to 80 percent chance of a major eruption, said Gov. Frank Savage.
He ordered the complete evacuation of the southern half of the island by 9 a.m. yesterday, and said when scientists believed the eruption was imminent, the entire island
would be evacuated.
Speaking on Radio Montserrat at 2 a.m. yesterday, Savage said the scientists' "worst case scenario" was a burst of molten lava. So far, the volcano has spewed only ash, steam and gas.
The evacuation began Monday after the volcano shook and roared and blackened the sky with the biggest eruption of ash and noxious gases since the long-dormant mountain came back to life July 18.
Yesterday, skies were overcast, obscuring the view of the volcano from Plymouth. A light rain fell and a whiff of sulfur was in the air.
All stores and government offices, even the police station, were closed.
Streets were nearly empty as the last of Plymouth's 2,500 residents fled north of the Belham Valley, about four miles from the capital.
Montserrat, a British colony with a population about 11,000, is a 7-by-11-mile island, only slightly larger than Washington. D.C.
The airport remained open. Karney Osborne, general manager of government-run Radio Antilles and Radio Montserrat, said in a telephone interview that the government had arranged for extra flights to help evacuate residents.
The government's contingency plan in the event of a major eruption includes flying people to the nearby islands of Antigua and St. Kitts.
