“I’m going to kill you, do you still want it?” He is said to have screamed at his daughter after putting his hands around her neck, nearly suffocating her and then pushing her against a wall. Shortly after, when trying to escape from the house, the young woman found her father chasing her down the street with a baseball bat. Out of fear, the 20-year-old woman decided to take refuge at a friend’s house, along with her boyfriend. After realizing that her father did not stop, but was looking for her, driving his car, with a baseball bat in the trunk, the young woman decided to go to the Medicina barracks. It all apparently stemmed from a dispute over a car the 20-year-old wanted to use to get his driver’s license.
The carabinieri of the Department of Medicine in Luca Filopei executed an application order for the removal of the family home and the prohibition of approaching the injured person, with the application of electronic braceletagainst an Italian in his fifties, investigated by the Prosecutor’s Office for family abuse.
The man’s 20-year-old daughter was the victim of beatings, insults and threats. This last episode, that of the baseball bat, happened at the end of November under the eyes of other family members of the 20-year-old (her mother and her half-brother, ed.) and also of the girl’s boyfriend. The girl felt so much fear that she was convinced to go to the barracks to expose the depressing and oppressive situation in the home. Here, the years of physical and mental abuse of the 50-year-old towards his eldest daughter emerge, so that he fears for his own safety: “You are fat”, “You disgust me”, “I should you have nothing and in life you can’t finish anything”.
These are often added slaps, kicks, belt blows and shovels. The precautionary measure was issued by the Judge for Preliminary Investigations of the Court of Bologna, Letizio Magliaro, following the request of the Public Prosecutor Gabriella Tavano, who coordinates the investigations.
The 50-year-old subject will be called to answer for the crime for the mistreatment of his adult daughter. The military arrived at home, the subject was subjected to precautionary measure and the electronic bracelet.
