He will appear before the judge on Monday for the validation hearing and will be able to explain what happened in the square of Bosa Marina on Thursday evening .
Matteo Sotgiu , 24, is accused of aggravated assault for stabbing a fellow village fisherman in the abdomen at the height of an argument. The conditions of the injured 42-year-old remain stable : he is hospitalized in Sassari with a reserved prognosis.
Meanwhile, the investigations of the Carabinieri of the Macomer company continue, having seized the knife and the young man's clothes and are trying to reconstruct what happened. From the first findings, it seems that the argument between some of Sotgiu's relatives and the fisherman arose over old work-related issues . Tempers soon flared, there was a scuffle and at that point Matteo Sotgiu pulled out the knife and stabbed his rival in the abdomen. According to what was reported to his lawyer Vincenzo Contu, he intervened to defend his parents, but his version is being examined by investigators. The military, coordinated by commander Giovanni Maria Seu, have heard numerous witnesses and also the other people involved in the fight. In the meantime, Sotgiu remains under house arrest awaiting the validation hearing.
