Threatened by her partner, she ran out into the street and called the police, fearing he would follow her. But she then decided not to report him .

It happened in Oristano , where a man was arrested by the police, due to his numerous previous convictions.

A repeat offender, he was already under an ongoing precautionary measure for mistreatment of his parents. And in 2023, he was warned by the Police Commissioner for stalking his ex-girlfriend .

Even with his new partner, with whom he didn't live, he engaged in harassing and violent behavior. So much so that the victim ran away, calling for assistance from the patrol car. When officers arrived, they found her alone, still deeply shaken by the incident. However, the woman decided not to file a complaint and reiterated her intention when questioned by the Flying Squad at the police station.

But the police, after interviewing the victim and reading the threatening messages he had sent her in the previous 48 hours, decided to proceed with the deferred arrest anyway, also by virtue of the man's previous convictions and the preventive measure already in place against him.

The man was searched for all night and tracked down inside a hospitality facility in the city. Once arrested, he was taken to Massama prison .
