Canosa, stabs his wife in the face and cuts her hair

He stabs his 24-year-old wife who refuses to have sex with him, slashing her face with a kitchen knife, then cuts her hair. It happened in Canosa di Puglia in an apartment in the city center. The perpetrator, a 42-year-old man of Moroccan nationality, was stopped by the police. The incident took place during a discussion. The screams of the woman, who arrived in Italy a few weeks ago, aroused the attention of the neighbors who, seeing blood and a man fleeing, alerted the police. The agents, who arrived on the spot, ascertained the seriousness of what happened and the investigations began. The woman was rushed to the ‘Bonomo’ hospital in Andria where she underwent surgery – which lasted hours – for multiple complex wounds of the face, the auricle and the dorsal surface of both hands. The perpetrator tried to lose track of himself by fleeing the scene in his car. The man was finally located in Ruvo di Puglia, where he was blocked while he was in his car in a street in the center. The latter’s attempt to flee again to escape the control of the police is in vain. Taken to the police station in Andria, the wanted man was questioned and provided his version of the facts without denying that he had stabbed his wife, also cutting her hair. . The elements collected allowed the public prosecutor of Trani to issue a decree of arrest of a suspect of crime against the suspect, accused of attempted murder and deformation of the person’s appearance through permanent injuries to the face. The man is now at the Trani Prison. The investigating judge at the court of Trani validated the arrest and ordered the precautionary measure in prison.
