He was implicated in an investigation by the Cagliari Antimafia Department because, according to the charges, in December 2019 he and other people allegedly attacked a Conad supermarket in Ittiri, attempting, unsuccessfully, to open the safe .

The gang had tied up the employees, threatening them with pistols and shotguns before fleeing , having failed. But, in recent days in court, defense attorney Ennio Masu demonstrated that his client had no connection to the case he had been involved in due to a case of homonymy. Born in 1973, he had nothing to do with the real subject of the investigation, who shares the same name but was born a few years later. Two other coincidences further confounded the situation: both were born in Alghero and resided in Ittiri .
