Naples, spouses stabbed by cousins ​​over family feud: two arrested

Naples. Two men were arrested by the State Police on charges of attempted murder and serious injury against a couple.

The attack, which took place on the morning of May 20, 2023 near the victims' home, was the culmination of a long family feud.

The investigations, coordinated by the Public Prosecutor's Office of Naples and conducted by the Flying Squad, brought to light a truth very different from the one initially presented by the victim.

The man, hospitalized in serious conditions at theCTO hospital from Naples with stab wounds, had initially declared that he had been attacked by a group of unknown people.

However, subsequent testimony from his wife and in-depth investigations revealed a much clearer picture: the attack had been planned and carried out by two cousins ​​of the victims, who, following a long period of family disagreements, had decided to take violent revenge.
