“I wasn't raping her, there was no attempted rape. We were arguing and she was the one who hit me first" : Massimo Cocco, 32 years old, from Olbia, clearly denied having tried to abuse a friend (events which occurred on an abandoned construction site in the center of Olbia, last Friday).
The man, who appeared before the investigating judge of the Tempio Court to validate the arrest, rejected the prosecutor's accusations . He said he had an argument with the alleged victim over a message the woman allegedly received on her smartphone. «We were arguing and she hit me with the phone in the nose and face. I gave her a slap, but there was no attempt at violence."
This is the thesis of Cocco's defender, the lawyer Giovanna Porcu. The investigating judge Marco Contu, for now, has accepted the prosecutor's requests, based on the investigations of the Carabinieri of the Territorial Department of Olbia. The man's arrest was validated and he was placed under precautionary custody in prison.
