Investigations continue into the murder of Sofia Castelli , the 20-year-old killed by her ex-boyfriend - the 23-year-old Italian-Moroccan Zakaria Atqaoui - in Cologno Monzese, on the outskirts of Milan.
In the next few hours, the young man - I confess - will be questioned and the judge will decide whether to contest the aggravating circumstance of premeditation.
According to the first findings of the investigations, on the night of the crime, the 23-year-old broke into the girl's house, taking advantage of the absence of her parents ( in Sardinia for a wedding anniversary, where Sofia was also supposed to join them ) and also of the young woman, who had spent an evening at the disco.
All with a set of keys that he would have stolen or duplicated.
Once inside, he hid in a closet , waiting.
He planned to surprise her with a man . Instead, Sofia returned before dawn with a friend and went to sleep. And at that point Zakaria would have taken action, surprising her in her sleep with a knife , while the girl's friend was sleeping in another room.
Circumstances that would precisely configure the aggravating circumstance of premeditated murder.
