He bangs his head against a gate, pinches his arms and then shouts, “Help, they’re beating me.”
These are the actions carried out, according to the indictment, by a 60-year-old woman from Sassari sentenced today to two years and 10 days in prison by Judge Silvia Masala.
The woman was charged not only with simulating a crime, but also with threatening, having addressed three people in 2017 - in a town in the Sassari hinterland - with phrases such as: "I'll smash your head in", "I'll beat you to death", and also for throwing a flowerpot at another woman.
Together with a 68-year-old man, also accused of threatening and sentenced to two years, she was then accused of slander for having reported a couple to the police of the same town because, she claimed, the other woman, incited by a man, had hit her several times on the head and arms with the handle of a beach umbrella.
The version of the two, defended by the lawyer Elisabetta Sotgia, however, was not supported, leading instead to the complaint against them.
