Attempted robbery, sexual assault and assault: these are the charges that led to the arrest by the police of two Algerians aged 26 and 28, asylum seekers, who last November 11 had attacked a girl in via Azuni, in front of the church of Sant’Anna, in Cagliari .
Drunk, at the height of a series of harassing behaviors that had caused panic among several teenagers, they allegedly committed an attack on an eighteen-year-old girl, who had come to the aid of a friend to whom the two had made some very unwelcome advances.
The twenty-eight-year-old had hit the young woman, also trying to snatch a necklace from her. The twenty-six-year-old, taking advantage of the situation, had groped her breasts.
The investigators of the Flying Squad, also thanks to the description of the victims who, courageously had described with lucidity the hectic moments of the aggression, and to the testimonies of other boys who had witnessed the facts, have collected serious evidence of guilt against both subjects, culminating in their arrest.
The twenty-six-year-old, who was tracked down in a short time, was arrested and transferred to Uta prison, while the twenty-eight-year-old, who in the meantime had become untraceable, was subjected to the measure of detention in prison issued by the investigating judge of Cagliari at the request of the Public Prosecutor’s Office, after being captured in Trinità d’Agultu, in a reception facility.
