Andrea Mussonia good former full-back who reached C1 with the shirt of Riminiwas arrested for stalking towards his ex-girlfriend. The events occurred last April 14, when the 44-year-old slapped the woman on the beach in front of many people. A scene, which left witnesses stunned, occurred near the “Kiosko Vincanto”, in Verucchio, about ten kilometers from Rimini. But to make the case even more intricate, another detail is added. That same night the venue, owned by a well-known 55-year-old singer-songwriter from Rimini Philip Malatestawent up in flames, charred by arson.
After that scene, which had upset the club’s goers, Malatesta had been strict with the former player with whom he has been a friend for a long time: “You won’t set foot in here again”. The reply was this:“Don’t worry, tomorrow you won’t have the place anymore, I’ll throw four Molotov cocktails at you“. In any case, it must be said that for the Carabinieri of the provincial command of Rimini, for now there is no connection between the arrest and the fire, although investigations are still underway.
If Mussoni is in jail, after the order signed by investigating judge Vinicio Cantarini who accepted the request of prosecutor Luca Bertuzzi, is for stalking his ex-partner, who reported him the day after what happened on the beach. The list of accusations includes, in addition to persecutory acts, aggravated personal injury, trespass and damage. The day before, the former footballer would have approached her near her home and would then have slashed the tires of the car of a friend of the woman.
The singer-songwriter, several albums and collaborations with Corrado Rustici, former producer of Zucchero and then also of Elisa, told his version to Corriere della Sera: “I have been a friend of Andrea for a long time, he was often here, in the evening it could happen that he helped us take out the empties” he explains on the phone, still unaware of the judicial ruling.“There is an ongoing investigation and I wouldn’t like to go beyond what I reported; we were all worried about her, but I can say that I feel sorry for him…”.
Malatesta tells the episodewith the place crowded “by about fifty people. She was at the table with other friends”. Suddenly Mussoni appears, sits at a table aside, and begins to pester his ex by sending her audio with his cell phone. Malatesta initially tries to calm him down,“I offer him a drink and tell him: come on, don’t worry”. A few hours pass, the woman is on the beach, he approaches her, he slaps her, He goes away. He reappears shortly after but at that point Filippo is peremptory: “I’ve been following you since this morning to tell you to stay calm… You never set foot in here again. Imagine putting your hands on a woman…”.
As for the threat to set the place on fire, the singer-songwriter says that“At first I didn’t give it any thought and I went home calmly, around 11pm”. A couple of hours later he received a phone call from a collaborator informing him of what had happened. In ten minutes the fire devoured everything, leaving only ash. And now? “I was pleased by the many testimonies of affection from customers, a subscription started. The Municipality gave me temporary permits for this summer.
Then we’ll rebuild everything.” assures Malatesta.
