He abandoned his elderly mother , who was invalid and not self-sufficient, to go on holiday to Abruzzo . The 84-year-old died of starvation after a few days .

The daughter, a 49-year-old Italian , was stopped by the Carabinieri of the Monterotondo company , at the end of an investigation coordinated by the Tivoli Prosecutor's Office. The investigation was triggered by the discovery of the old woman's body on the morning of June 12th .

The Carabinieri from the Montelibretti station went to the suspect's home to serve a document. Having reached the house, not receiving any response and becoming suspicious of a strong smell coming from the apartment, they decided to investigate further. They then carried out a check of the perimeter of the house and found an open window which allowed access to the interior. Thus they discovered the body of the elderly woman, lying on the ground . A single sheet partially covered her.

The medical examiner intervened on site and confirmed that the death of the 84-year-old had occurred a few days earlier . The police reconstructed that the 49-year-old daughter, cohabitant and responsible for the care of the elderly woman, had left the house to go on holiday in Abruzzo together with her two minor children, without providing due care to her mother, thus left to herself, without food or water and without any mobile phone to call for help.

The Tivoli Prosecutor's Office issued a criminal arrest against him on charges of abandonment of an incapacitated person, a condition following which the elderly mother died. The Tivoli investigating judge validated the detention and ordered the measure of house arrest.
