Hayati Aroyo, 62, was the brother-in-law of Turkish mafia boss Huseyin Sarai, who was killed in Crotone on January 31, 2005, while he was driving his car. He also kept newspaper articles reporting the incident in the house where he was stabbed 30 times, and in the apartment that was then burned to cover his tracks on July 23 in Sesto San Giovanni, just outside Milan.

However, Milan's Flying Squad officers determined that her murder had nothing to do with the Turkish mafia or organized crime, but was the result of associations with people she met on dating sites who attended her cocaine-fueled parties. The officers arrested a husband and wife, aged 36 and 38, from Busto Arsizio, and a 33-year-old Albanian man, their friend, who was the perpetrator of the brutal crime. The motive, still unclear, lies in the fact that Aroyo had a video of the woman performing sexual acts with another man and could distribute it. For this reason, that night the woman had arranged to meet the victim at a house lent to Aroyo by a student who was away on summer vacation.

That evening, the Italian-Turkish man had also wired her a taxi fare, but she preferred to save the money by going to Sesto San Giovanni with the Albanian. She entered the house, leaving the door open so the man could commit the murder by stabbing her 30 times, then lay her body on the bed and douse it with bleach to set it alight. All this while the woman's husband stood lookout outside. They had taken money, three credit cards, a tablet, and her cell phone from the house, which is why, in addition to aggravated murder, they are also charged with robbery. They then made a serious mistake: they used the victim's credit cards to make purchases at nearby stores and also played at a slot machine.

Once the alert for the misuse of the cards was raised, the surveillance camera images acquired by the Mobile Police allowed the woman to be identified, and the phone records of her, her husband, and the man from Abano did the rest. The latter even made some admissions before the Monza prosecutor. Among the various wiretaps after the crime, one stands out, demonstrating the woman's coldness during the crime: "I was afraid of feeling pity, but I didn't. When I looked, it was to see if I felt anything, but nothing."
