Prosecutor Claudia Manconi has asked for nine years and six months' imprisonment for the 50-year-old bartender from Olbia, Gianfranco Pittorru, accused of stabbing a man of Tunisian citizenship two years ago in Piazza Matteotti in Olbia.
The requests were made to the Court of Tempio, at the end of a long indictment, during which the prosecutor changed the initial dispute, passing from attempted murder to serious injuries. Pittorru, according to the prosecutor, stabbed the victim after an argument, hitting her in the abdomen.
The knife slashed his intestines, causing permanent damage.
According to the Public Prosecutor's Office, Pittorru had no intention of killing.
The same thesis of the coroner, Salvatore Lorenzoni, who assessed the consequences of the injury of the Tunisian.
According to Lorenzoni, Pittorru's conduct was not suitable for killing. The lawyer Giovanna Porcu and the defender, the criminal lawyer Giampaolo Murrighile, will speak on 5 April.
