Paolo Durzu also died after falling from a height of several dozen meters. This was established by the autopsy carried out by coroner Roberto Demontis on the body of the 33-year-old from Quartu, found lifeless on Friday among the rocks of Cala Fighera, in Cagliari, where two days earlier his girlfriend, Manola Mascia, 28 years old from the Cagliari neighborhood of San Michele, had also died. Durzu also had numerous wounds and trauma compatible with the impact with the wall and the rocks of the cove, and then ended up in the water . Exactly like the injuries found on Mascia's body. Histological tests and other tests have also been ordered, but it now seems clear that the couple died because they fell from the wall . And death should have occurred between the evening of Tuesday and the following hours.
Thus the theory of the accident, of the tragic fatality, is further confirmed. The two, as reconstructed by the investigators of the Flying Squad who carried out the investigations, could have fallen during a walk on the dangerous paths overlooking Cala Fighera. They had been seen on Tuesday immediately after lunch in a bar on Via XX Settembre, as reported by the owner of the place, and then in the afternoon in Calamosca by a witness. They were smiling and happy.
Manola Mascia's body was seen late Wednesday morning by a hiker and recovered by Coast Guard personnel. A purse containing her boyfriend's documents was also recovered. At that point, the search for Durzu began. Naval vessels and a helicopter from the Coast Guard and firefighters were in action. Operations made difficult by the strong sirocco wind and very rough seas. On Friday morning, the 33-year-old was found among the rocks: he was about ten meters from the point where his girlfriend's body had been recovered .
The investigation will now continue with the analysis of Durzu's cell phone and the examination of the footage from the surveillance cameras in the area . Monday will probably be the green light for the return of the bodies of the young people to their families. Quartu and San Michele are thus preparing for a day of enormous pain and tears for the farewell to two fiancés with a whole life ahead of them. "Mom's love, I miss you so much, treasure of my heart," were the words entrusted to social media by Durzu's mother, Antonella Contu. "I think of you every moment and I can't find peace. One day we will meet again to hug you tightly."
