The man who destroyed the red bench in Muravera, built with the approval of the municipality in via Roma to raise awareness on the occasion of the international day against violence against women, was identified and denounced by the carabinieri.
He is a 40-year-old local, unemployed and with a police record.
The bench had been completely destroyed and torn to pieces in the night between 24 and 25 November 2021, an act that greatly indignant the Muraveresi.
The investigation began immediately: the military acquired images from the video surveillance cameras of the neighboring areas and listened to several people. The investigations led to the identification of the person responsible, deferred to the judicial authority in a state of freedom.
According to what was ascertained by the investigators, it is a vandal act due to a moment of anger and not directly aimed at the issue on which the bench wanted to raise awareness. In fact, the man, seized by an inexplicable fit of anger, had tried to damage other private structures shortly before.
The bench had been rebuilt and repositioned in the same public space by an association of volunteers.
