The funeral of Francesco Cidu , the 66-year-old farmer killed last Tuesday in the countryside of Gavoi, will take place on 26 December (and not today, as previously communicated, ed.).

The Barbagia community will rally around the pain of the family of "Cecio", the name by which everyone in the area knew him. The parish priest, Don Michele Casula, will preside over the funeral, held in the church of San Gavino .

Francesco Cidu was killed with two rifle shots . The first reached him at the side, then the killer fired the final blow on his face, disfiguring him.

The autopsy, carried out yesterday afternoon by the medical examiner Roberto Demontis, confirmed what already emerged on Tuesday evening after the discovery of the body in the countryside of Gaidanu, between Gavoi and Lodine. The examination was carried out at the San Martino hospital in Oristano by the medical examiner Roberto Demontis.

It was confirmed that the death occurred many hours before the discovery , which occurred around 8pm, i.e. in the morning when the 66-year-old farmer from Gavoi was opening the gate to the land for his day's work.

The complete results of the autopsy will be deposited in a few weeks in the investigation file opened by the deputy prosecutor of Nuoro, Andrea Ghironi.
