Tragedy in Manduria, in the Tarantino, where the 75-year-old Pietro Dimitri, with numerous precedents for robbery, extortion and association crimes, killed his 71-year-old companion, Giuseppa Loredana Dinoi, hitting her with numerous blows with a large knife in the face, neck, chest and upper and lower limbs.

It was the murderer himself who called the carabinieri, confessing to having killed his partner and saying he wanted to commit suicide, then he suffered minor injuries to his upper limbs and neck and waited for help to arrive.

The military, already alerted by the neighbors, intervened and discovered the lifeless body of the woman. The man was in the room next to the one where the partner was found. He was transported by ambulance to the Giannuzzi hospital where he is hospitalized under arrest for voluntary murder.

When his health conditions permit, the man will be taken to prison.

The coroner and the prosecutor on duty also intervened on the scene of the femicide.

From the information gathered by the investigators, it seems that the two cohabitants had a discontinuous relationship, characterized by frequent interruptions and resumptions, but in the neighborhood no one had ever witnessed quarrels or heard screams, nor did the victim, a housewife, ever turn to the police to report any violent behavior of the 75-year-old.

Further investigations are underway to reconstruct what happened and clarify the motive.
