He retraced all the stages that led to the arrest of Emanuele Sircana, the witness to the murder of Mario Sedda, the 39-year-old killed in Porto Torres in the spring of 2021 .
During the preliminary hearing ordered by Elisa Marras, the investigating judge of the Juvenile Court of Sassari, the young man appeared this morning with his lawyer, Sara Dettori, confirming what he had already stated during the summary information hearings with public prosecutors Laura Bassani of the Juvenile Court and Angelo Beccu. He recounted the details and confidences allegedly given to him by Sircana , the 20-year-old accused of the Sedda murder and detained in the Quartucciu juvenile prison since last June.
"He confirmed everything he had already told the prosecutors, reiterating his concern about the intimidation his family had received ," explained lawyer Dettori at the end of the examination.
The suspect and defense attorney Alessandra Delrio were also present in the preliminary investigations judge's courtroom. "There are discrepancies in the witness's statements compared to the summary information initially gathered , which must be evaluated," Sircana's lawyer emphasized, "and regarding the use of corrosive substances thrown on the victim's body, the witness did not confirm." According to Delrio, these contradictions were highlighted by the prosecutor himself, who raised some objections to the initial statements.
Also in the courtroom were Pietro Diaz, lawyer representing Eleonora Sedda, the victim's sister, and Costantino Biello, lawyer representing Mario Sedda's ex-wife and son.
The investigation continues with the technical checks by the RIS of Cagliari on the clothes worn by Sedda on the night of the crime , with the aim of gathering more clues and evidence that could lead investigators to find answers to such a brutal crime.
