Rassoul Bissoultanov , the Chechen convicted in Spain for the murder of Niccolò Ciatti, killed in a beating at the age of 22 in Lloret de Mar, has disappeared.

The man did not appear this morning at the hearing for imprisonment at the Provincial Court of Girona. At the moment, it is not known where the man is, so it is not excluded that he fled .

For the Chechen, residing in France and sentenced to 15 years for voluntary murder , the judge had ordered the withdrawal of his passport, which is why the man is not legally authorized to leave Spain. The prosecution has asked the judge to issue an international arrest warrant against him, sources from the Girona Provincial Court said.

With the notification of the sentence of first instance, the convicted in Spain also receives the setting of the imprisonment hearing in which the measure to be applied is discussed and which is served pending the appeal. In the meantime he remains in fact in a state of freedom .

THE LAWYER: "ESCAPE ANNOUNCED" - "Rassoul Bissoultanov did not appear this morning at the hearing for imprisonment at the court of Girona because the Spanish prosecutor Victor Pillado would have asked for prison for 7 and a half years, half the previous sentence degree, and the judge would certainly have granted the extent of imprisonment ", said the lawyer of the Ciatti family, the lawyer Agnese Usai .

"His defender could not say anything to the judge, he did not know where his client was, he did not show any medical certificates or other justifications. Now in practice he is a fugitive - added Usai -. It is embarrassing, it is announced flight because Bissoultanov he had already tried to escape in August 2021 when, saying to go and renew a permit in Strasbourg, then instead the German police stopped him at the border, in Kehl, where he wanted to enter Germany and so he was extradited to Italy ", otherwise he would have fled again to East.

"The real problem - adds Usai - is that Bissoultanov in Italy was released from prison, we had him here and he was released ... He continues to make fun of us ".

The Court of Assizes of Rome on December 22, 2021 revoked the prison of the Chechen at the request of the defenders. Then, the Supreme Court canceled this provision but in the meantime Bissoultanov had left Italy and returned to Spain where he was staying in Catalonia.
