Completely naked and under the influence of drugs, he showed up in front of the Carabinieri station in Poggio Rusco, in the Mantua province, in the dead of New Year's Eve and left 5 grams of hashish, the same amount of cocaine, and some banknotes on the ground . The 43-year-old Moroccan man, an illegal immigrant who was later fined and reported , explained to the police that he had heard "the voice of Allah" telling him to free himself from sin and everything connected to drug dealing , such as money.

The man, naked despite the freezing temperature, arrived in front of the police station, which was closed to the public at that time, and rang the intercom several times to no avail. Passersby noticed him and called 112. A patrol from the Magnacavallo station and the Poggio Rusco Carabinieri arrived on the scene and found money and drugs in front of the station. The man was later located wandering around the town. Taken to the police station, he tried to explain what had happened, explaining that he had left the house naked because his clothes had been purchased with "dirty money" from drug dealing. The Carabinieri gave the Moroccan a blanket and offered him a hot tea.

Analysis of the images from the barracks' surveillance cameras confirmed the man's story.

The narcotic was seized and the foreigner was reported to the Mantua prefecture as a drug user, fined for obscene acts in a public place, and charged with illegal residence in Italy.
