Giuseppe Giorgi (San Luca, 6 March 1961) is an Italian criminal belonging to the 'Ndrangheta, a criminal organisation in Calabria. Born in San Luca, he has been a fugitive since 1995, wanted for criminal association and arms and drug trafficking, extortion and murder. He is included on the list of most wanted fugitives in Italy.[1]

Also known as 'u capra (the goat) Giorgi belongs to the Pelle-Romeo-Vottari clan from San Luca and is the son-in-law of the boss Sebastiano Romeo. He has been involved in the illegal disposal of toxic and radioactive waste, as well as the smuggling of niobium – a metal used in nuclear reactors. Ships loaded with hazardous waste were sunk with dynamite off the Italian coast.[2]

While on the run, Giorgi is believed to reside in Germany.[3]
