Emanuele Ragnedda Hospitalized After Reported Suicide Attempt in Prison Cell

Forensic teams will return to his Concaentosa estate for new examinations to clarify the dynamics of the killing.

Overview

  • Ragnedda was transferred overnight from Bancali prison to Sassari hospital after self-harm in his cell, and his condition is not considered life-threatening.
  • He has been taken in charge by the ASL psychiatric service in a protected ward under strict surveillance.
  • Defense lawyer Luca Montella visited his client and said the episode was probably to be expected, offering no additional details.
  • The RIS unit from Cagliari is scheduled to conduct further examinations at the Concaentosa property on Wednesday and Thursday to reconstruct events and verify whether he acted alone.
  • Investigators are assessing indications he may have tried to dispose of the body at sea near Capo Ferro before it was found buried on his land, and two people are under investigation for allegedly aiding him after the killing.
