Ris at work in Villasor , on Via Sivilleri , where ninety-six-year-old Antonietta Piras was found dead in her home yesterday afternoon. The widow lived alone and had no children. Her body was discovered by her niece when she entered the ransacked house.

The autopsy, scheduled for this morning, has been postponed : coroner Roberto Demontis is in Orani investigating the murder of Tonino Pireddu , the 38-year-old man killed by a rifle shot outside his home last night. The postponed examination will be conducted in the coming days.

Investigators are maintaining the utmost confidentiality. The road has been closed while investigations continue to determine the cause of death. No possibility has been ruled out, not even foul play.
