Milan Judge Orders Pretrial Custody After Alleged Gasoline Attack on Ex‑Wife

Investigators documented months of abuse culminating in a workplace assault captured on video.

Overview

  • The 46-year-old was jailed on suspicion of domestic violence and aggravated injuries following a custody order by GIP Luca Milani.
  • On November 5 in Seregno he allegedly immobilized the woman outside her workplace and hurled flammable liquid into her face and eyes, causing chemical conjunctivitis and other injuries.
  • Carabinieri acquired surveillance footage and seized a 500 ml bottle likely containing petrol, while the suspect surrendered a lighter, his phone and a GPS device reportedly used to track her car.
  • The victim had filed a complaint in June that prompted his removal from the family home, with prosecutors now citing a concrete risk of repetition.
  • After the attack she took refuge in her car and called emergency services, and he later presented himself at a station as court filings describe alcohol-fueled, obsessive control.
