Sentenced to one year for persecutory acts , and without parole, against a homosexual couple . In recent days in court in Sassari the sentence of the preliminary hearing judge Gian Paolo Piana against a 49-year-old from Alghero , their neighbor in the Catalan city, accused, among various charges, of having addressed the two men on the street with homophobic insults such as "Those fagots fagots of m...., fagots" or, once people had united civilly, telling them "Para-ass wankers".

But the disputed episodes, which allegedly occurred between 2013 and today, are different, including hitting one of the offended parties with several sticks on the abdomen when he asked him to pay his fee for the driveway. Setting fire to the car of one of the two, an affair for which he was however convicted in another proceeding. Then a series of mischief, such as throwing rubble in front of the couple's front door , throwing debris on their terrace and damaging the video surveillance cameras installed by the two. And later writing on social media that if you had neighbors who were «voyeurs (and probably even wankers) who filmed you with illegal cameras, you should know that there is not only the privacy guarantor but also article 615 bis (unlawful interference in private life)".

The 49-year-old was also accused of slander because, in 2021, he had filed a report with the police for the theft of a ladder of which he had accused the two. The judge sentenced the Alghero native, defended by the lawyer Danilo Mattana, also to pay 10 thousand euros each for the civil parties, assisted by the lawyer Emiliano Alfonso.
