Three Arrested in Sesto San Giovanni Killing of 60-Year-Old Found Stabbed and Burned

The detainees now await a judge's validation of their detention.

Overview

  • Police coordinated by the Monza prosecutor's office detained an Italian man, an Albanian man, and an Italian woman on accusations including aggravated murder, aggravated robbery, arson, and destruction of a corpse.
  • Investigators say the victim, a 60-year-old man of Turkish origin, suffered about thirty stab wounds before the attackers set the body and apartment on fire to erase evidence.
  • The homicide squad of Milan's Squadra Mobile linked the trio to the crime through CCTV analysis, phone records, and intercepted communications that mapped movements and roles on the night in question.
  • The two male suspects were taken to Busto Arsizio prison and the woman to San Vittore pending the gip's convalidation hearing.
  • Detectives reconstructed the victim's social ties and identified sustained animosity from the three suspects as the alleged motive under examination.
