The suicide hypothesis in the investigation into the death of Neapolitan gynecologist Stefano Ansaldi is increasingly less credible, even if possible.
The professional was found dead in Milan last December 19 near via Macchi, railway area. The investigation - as reported by Il Mattino - starts from the fatal wound to the throat from the left and the doctor was not left-handed. Furthermore, the presence of three scratches could represent a hesitation on the part of the doctor, presumably suicidal, to sink the blade to the throat. Certainly, however, the scratch evidence is an element difficult to fit into the reconstruction of Stefano Ansaldi's death.
The story has many dark sides and this means that the investigations continue densely in the life of the professional from Benevento who has been in Naples for years. The trail pursued by the Milanese prosecutor Scudieri, presents a scenario of voluntary homicide.
Ansaldi died in Milan but had an appointment in Chiasso: he had to meet someone for work reasons and, before taking the train, he had confided to his Neapolitan driver: "I have to speak to a friend from Dubai, who is in Switzerland these days". This version was confirmed by the testimony provided by the man who was supposed to meet the gynecologist of Benevento origins.
So far, the reconstruction seems clear but there are two pieces of the puzzle that investigators are now hammering away at and which concern the air routes: those that lead from Lugano or Milan to Dubai.
It is precisely Dubai, as a destination that has always been preferred by the Neapolitan Camorra to invest and launder dirty money, through front men (unsuspecting professionals with clean faces) that fuels the suspicion that it was a suicide.
Was he perhaps in debt or forced to do something alien to his ethics to the point that the only solution could be suicide or, under blackmail, was he killed?
Another unclear element is his cell phone that stopped working at 16.30:XNUMX p.m. His body was found with little money in his pocket, an expensive Rolex watch that he was holding tightly in his hands, a suitcase with a few papers and two cell phone top-ups. Then there is another piece of the puzzle, which concerns the kitchen knife sunk in his throat that was found to have no fingerprints at the forensic tests and an object foreign to the relatives of the dead doctor.
There are still many shadowy lines on the death of the Benevento gynecologist, a case on which the Naples Prosecutor's Office is also keeping the spotlight on, with the investigations of the DDA.
