The feminicide of Giulia Cecchettin, 22 years old and about to graduate, has shaken Italyafter the discovery of her body next to Lake Barcis (north) a few hours before the arrest this Sunday in Germany of her ex-boyfriend and after a week of intense search for the disappearance of both.
The murder of Giulia, whose home has become in recent hours an altar of stuffed animals, flowers, candles, letters and drawings dedicated to her, has caused a deep social commotion, but also among the political class, with the prime minister, Giorgia Meloni. , and the leader of the opposition, Elly Schlein, at the head.
Cecchettin disappeared with her ex-boyfriend, Filippo Turetta, last Saturday, when she was murdered by him, as revealed by surveillance cameras in an industrial area in which the boy was seen repeatedly hitting her while she told him: You’re hurting me and He dragged her several meters along the ground.
After some arduous search work, the body was located this Saturday in a canal next to Lake Barcis and the autopsy revealed that she had been stabbed in the head and neck and that she tried to defend herself, since there were marks on her arms and hands. Several injuries were detected, according to local media.
Both the suspect’s parents and the prosecutors leading the investigation launched messages yesterday in the media asking the young man to surrender and this morning the police announced that he had been detained on a German highway thanks to an international arrest warrant issued by a crime of homicide.
True love does not humiliate, does not disappoint, does not trample, betray or hurt the heart. True love does not hit, it does not scream, it does not kill, wrote Gino Cecchettin, his father on social networks, before adding: My love I already miss you a lot, give mom a hug and a kiss from me, because the mother died last year
Also her sister Elena, to whom she was very close, said goodbye to her with a photo of both of them, without forgetting Turetta: He was your good boy, she wrote using the same phrase that the boy’s parents had used during the days of search.
According to her, the young woman’s graduation in Biomedical Engineering, which should have been held last Thursday at the University of Padua (north), was the trigger for the murder, since although the relationship had broken down months ago, Turetta considered it a turning point. inflection
This dramatic story that has affected us all due to the atrocity of the murder ends tragically for a girl who was about to graduate. I think we should give him an honorary title, said the Minister of Foreign Affairs and Vice President of the Government, Antonio Tajani.
While the president of Vneto, Luca Zaia, announced a day of regional mourning on the day of Giulia’s funeral. We will have all the flags of the institutions at half-mast and the entire region will hug her family, Giulia’s friends and everyone who loved her.
Cecchettin is the 105th woman murdered in Italy so far this yearaccording to data from the Italian Government.
