While the city of Gragnano (Naples) is preparing to give its last farewell to Alessandro, the 13-year-old boy who died last week after falling from the balcony of his home, the investigators reinforce their conviction. What initially seemed like a tragic accident is instead a suicide behind which there is a history of cyber bullying .
Threats and intimidations that could have arisen after the conclusion of the bond between Alessandro and a girl, who out of jealousy would have started the rain of insults against her ex with other friends.
The evidence would be contained in the text messages found on the boy's cell phone, kidnapped by the carabinieri immediately after the tragedy. Before he died, the boy said goodbye with a text message to his new girlfriend.
A persecution carried out by a real gang made up of young and very young people: six people in all, including four minors, under investigation for instigating suicide . Two girls, including Alessandro's ex-girlfriend, who may have played a key role in the persecutory action.
The new relationship would have triggered the reaction of the ex: in chat and live the 13-year-old would have been the victim of insults and threats .
The family, represented by the lawyer Giulio Pepe, prefers not to overreact: “These are news - the lawyer affirms - that we have learned from the press and which for now should be considered as hypotheses. In addition, in some cases we are faced with minors, therefore subjects who must be treated with all the caution that the case deserves ".
Yesterday the autopsy took place, which allowed to free the boy's body, which was returned to his parents for today's funeral. The mayor has proclaimed the city mourning .
