Breakthrough in the investigation into Lula's crime.

Nico Piras was killed by Lula's nephew Antonello Piras, 21 years old , who turned himself in in the morning at the Bitti Carabinieri Company , confessing in the presence of the prosecutor and his lawyers that he was responsible for the murder of his uncle , killed on the night of last October 2 shot. The young man, defended by lawyers Francesco Mossa and Giovanni Angelo Colli, was arrested and taken to Badu 'e Carros prison.

A family feud that has been going on for years: Antonello Piras is in fact the son of Angelo Maria Piras, brother of Nico, who was shot dead in 2015 . According to the investigators, a crime which arose due to inheritance issues and of which Nico Piras himself is accused together with his ex-wife Alice Flore, today in Cagliari there should have been a trial in the Court of Assizes against the 42-year-old farmer murdered last Monday.

The young man's position was immediately at the center of evaluations and investigations for a whole series of elements: first of all the victim's precedent and therefore the probable motive for revenge, but not only that. A moped used by the boy was found near the crime scene, furthermore Antonello Piras became untraceable immediately after the murder .

The crime, as far as we know, was not carried out out of revenge, but following the victim's continuous provocations towards his nephew. In fact, during “Cortes Apertas” Antonello would have been followed from one court to another by his uncle. When they found themselves in what would later become the scene of the crime, Nico Piras allegedly threatened his nephew: "I love you but I will make you end up like your father" , he allegedly told him.

Meanwhile, an autopsy on the 42-year-old's body is scheduled for today, while the funeral will take place tomorrow, Saturday 7 October.
