Beatings, harassment, threats. All at the expense of his sisters and elderly parents, with whom he lived. A 53-year-old farmer was reported last night in Gesturi , accused of mistreatment of his cohabiting family members.
The operation began after a request for help from one of the man's sisters, who had the courage to report what had been going on for years within the home. From the first reconstructions, a picture of violence, physical and psychological abuse emerged, aimed not only at the woman, but also at other family members, including the parents in their eighties .
The victims, who for years had never reported or formalized medical reports for the attacks suffered, were transferred to a safe environment and directed to the local anti-violence center, where they will receive psychological and legal assistance to deal with the consequences of the long period of abuse. During the checks in the home, the military excluded the presence of weapons, thus reducing further risks for the victims.
