Francesco Schiavone (Italian pronunciation: [franˈtʃesko skjaˈvoːne]; born 3 March 1954) is a member of the Camorra, the Caserta organized crime syndicate, and the head of the Casalesi clan from Casal di Principe in the province of Caserta. Because of his thick, dark beard, he has been dubbed "Sandokan", after the main character of a popular 1970s television series starring Kabir Bedi.
