Flowers at the crime scene

Mantua – In the night between 1 and 2 July, in the Piazzale della Favorita, on the outskirts of Mantua, the 23-year-old Atiljo Ndrecaj, Albanian, with a clean record he was killed by a baseball bat. A month later, the turning point arrives: one of the two killers has been identified and arrested. It is a 35 year old Moroccan, regularly present in Italy. In truth, the capture dates back to a few days after the attack, but the carabinieri of the Mantua Investigative Unit wanted to keep confidential in order to try to identify the accomplice, who is still a fugitive.

These are the facts. On the night of July 2, around 3 am, a witness calls the carabinieri. In the Piazzale della Favorita the soldiers find two young men on the ground. One, Ndrecaj, he is injured – he will die shortly after – and has a baseball bat broken in two by his body. The other is a 35-year-old Italian with small precedents for drug dealing, beaten to death too: he is very serious, he will struggle for a long time between life and death and is still in a delicate phase of convalescence. The hypothesis immediately emerged that the violence was linked to drug issues. Now the arrested person can explain the motive.

The man he had immediately fled together with his accomplice, but then on 8 July he was identified aboard a train in the province of Varese. Thanks to the evidence gathered so far e to the risk of flight, the man had been subjected to the arrest of a crime suspect, validated by the Gip of Mantua, but also brought behind bars, at the request of the Mantua Public Prosecutor who had requested precautionary custody in prison con the accusation of complicity in voluntary homicide and attempted murder. The other investigated is still sought.
