The screaming and kicking at the front door. Then the death threats to his ex-partner and to the baby she has been carrying for eight months. When the carabinieri arrive in front of that house in Lacchiarella, an extreme province south of Milan, on the border with Pavia, the future father of that baby, a 44-year-old Italian, doesn’t stop. He continues to shouting and banging on the door. He wants to go up to the house and take away with him another daughter of theirs who is not even 10 years oldat that moment with my mother.
It all happened in the night between Saturday and Sunday, around one o’clock. It is the man’s ex-partner who calls 112. She is younger than him, 37 years old and has been pregnant for eight months. The 44-year-old showed up in front of the house where they lived together and started threatening her. Even of death, she and the little girl in her belly. The woman managed to call for help, and the carabinieri from the Rosate station and the mobile radio unit of the Abbiategrasso company arrived on the scene. The man had already threatened and mistreated his partner in the past, however, she had never reported it until now. After blocking the man – with a history of robbery and resisting a public official – he was taken to the barracks and arrested for aggravated persecutory acts because he committed them against a pregnant woman with whom he had an emotional relationship. But it wasn’t the first time.
Already in 2018 the man had been hit with a monitoring measure signed by the police commissioner for similar facts against another woman, always an ex-partner of his. The 44-year-old had also been entrusted on probation to social services with the obligation to return home by 9pm and not to leave the province of Pavia, where he lived. As the 44-year-old was taken to Pavia prison. The investigating judge validated the arrest and ordered precautionary custody in prison.
