The 59-year-old was sentenced to one year and six months with a suspended sentence , and last March in Ploaghe , he attacked his neighbor with an axe .

The sentence, today in court in Sassari, was ordered by Judge Silvia Masala, making the decision conditional on a course of treatment for the man. Three months ago, the man allegedly followed the person who lived in his building down the street and who he had complained about because he was “making noise”. When he reached a bar, he began drinking alcohol in such quantities that the police intervened to ask him to stop. The 59-year-old then returned home and took a cleaver and a gas cylinder, threatening his neighbor who, frightened, called the police.

Even in front of the military, the man allegedly did not spare insults and threats, forcing the police to use the taser to render him harmless.

Arrested and taken to Bancali, the person, defended by the lawyer Elisabetta Sotgia, received the written sentence in the morning.
