Terralba, quartese cade e muore: la Procura indaga per omicidio
Injuries compatible with a violent action were found on the victim. But to understand whether or not it was murder - a crime being investigated by the Oristano prosecutor - it will be necessary to carry out further tests. At the moment, no track can be ruled out, not even that of the accident.
According to what emerged, Cuccu was a guest of some friends last weekend. After an evening spent peacefully, in the night between Sunday and Monday he would get out of bed and fall. He was lying on the floor when he was helped by bystanders. Then he would lie down. The next morning, however, the domestic worker realized that her conditions were critical. Thus the emergency transfer to Brotzu was triggered, where he died. The reporting of the anomalies of the case to the Prosecutor's Office was immediate.
The carabinieri listened to the testimonies of friends and that of the woman who triggered the alarm.
Medical tests, so far, have not solved the mystery. It seems that Cuccu had significant health problems and falls were not infrequent.
