Overview
- Pavia’s chief prosecutor, Fabio Napoleone, asked the court to sentence Massimo Adriatici over the fatal shooting of 39-year-old Moroccan citizen Youns El Boussettaoui.
- The case stems from a July 20, 2021 incident in Voghera’s Piazza Meardi, where a shot from Adriatici’s .22-caliber pistol killed El Boussettaoui.
- Adriatici, a lawyer and former Lega municipal assessor for security in Voghera, opted for a fast-track trial known as rito abbreviato.
- Prosecutors moved the allegation from excess in self-defense to voluntary homicide after reviewing surveillance footage and other elements.
- Judge Luigi Riganti is presiding, and local reports indicate a ruling is expected on January 30.
