Reggio Emilia, 10 June 2024 – Riccardo Stefani41 years old, originally from Cossato in the province of Biella, he was followed by social services and was in charge of the Sert of Montecchio. Her profile was well known in Val d’Enza, given that he appeared to be suffering from addictions. His trusted lawyer Stefano Germini knows his judicial history. And although it is still early to define a line of defense, he explains how he suffered “from diagnosed psychiatric problems”. His own reaction to the murder is anomalous. The lawyer explains how he found him amazed by the situation: “he wasn’t well, he couldn’t understand what had happened and he denied having ever previously argued with the victim”. All statements that for now must be verified and contextualized. “We will have to delve deeper into this profile“, the lawyer simply says cautiously. The meeting will have to be held this morning arrest validation and for now nothing more is known even with respect to the autopsy examination which will certainly have to be done on body of Ilirjan Minaja 61-year-old of Albanian origin, who Stefani would have killed with a fatal blow to the heart (as well as having probably hit him superficially on the lip). Stefaniwho lived in Piedmont, he had been taken to Modena prison to be close to the only family he had: his mother. At the time he was serving time for charges of resisting a public official and driving while intoxicated. Having served his sentence, he moved to Bibbiano to live with his mother.

Since There was no shortage of problems for Stefani, who had already been reported by the police a few months ago for having defaced a roundabout not far from his home. “I’m angry with that intersection because my dog died there”, he justified himself when the military heard him. All the neighbors who live in via Corradini, around the building where the murder took place, describe him as an angry person, used to insulting more than talking. A man of massive size which scared even the kids used to playing in the entrance hall and courtyard of the building. And it wasn’t the first time, it seems, that there were tensions with the Albanian family who lived two floors below him. The other night it all started with a jokea piqued exchange between Stefani and the sixty-one-year-old craftsman Minaj. Then an offense towards the elderly man, who chased him to his apartment, hitting the front door. At that point Stefani would have come out, armed with a knife. And in an instant, Minaj’s life was snatched away.
