On 28 June she returned to report her ex for stalking, who had already been sentenced in the first instance and on appeal to 11 years for repeated sexual assaults, injuries and death threats.

The protagonist is a 33-year-old Romanian, who asked for help from the Riesi carabinieri and alarmed the Caltanissetta prosecutor's office which in April had obtained the conviction of the man, Razvan Barzoi, his name, Romanian, 26 years old.

Fearing that the defendant, who in the meantime had been under house arrest, could go from threats to deeds, the deputy pg Fabiola Furnari requested and received in record time from the court of appeal the aggravation of the precautionary measure for the accused. But the speed of justice did not avert the worst: and the woman, a 33-year-old also originally from Romania, committed suicide by hanging herself, probably for fear that the violence she suffered could repeat itself.

The story happens in Riesi, a town in the province of Caltanissetta. Barzoi, 26 years old, some occasional jobs, and his partner had been together for five months in 2020. A very troubled relationship with tensions that resulted in violence that the victim had reported. His stories had been deemed credible by the first and second instance judges who had sentenced the ex to 11 years in prison for repeated sexual assaults, threats and ill-treatment. In the meantime, the man had been under house arrest.

But the guilty verdict would not have put an end to the Romanian's persecutory behavior. The latest sentence is in April. Only two months later the victim presented himself again to the carabinieri, recording a four-page story with details on the threats to which the ex continued to subject her despite the obligation of house arrest with an electronic bracelet. The complaint ended up with the prosecutors of Caltanissetta who opened an investigation and forwarded the woman's complaint to the Attorney General competent to request a possible aggravation of the precautionary measure. The magistrates had no doubts and in the light of the very specific complaint and the man's personality, they asked the court that the house arrest be replaced with prison.

The Romanian, however, committed suicide earlier. To warn the carabinieri of the victim's intentions would have been the same ex-partner to whom the woman would have telephoned shortly before taking her own life. A circumstance on which the military investigates in an attempt to reconstruct the dynamics of the facts well.

There are aspects to be clarified: first of all the checks to which the Romanian had to be subjected, being under house arrest and having obligations which, evidently, having continued to threaten the woman, he would not have respected. Meanwhile, on his Fb page on June 30, the day of the victim's suicide, Barzoi wrote: «My beautiful queen, may God rest you in peace. You left me too soon, I will love you all my life, I will never forget you, my beautiful soul».
