Naples – A denial that turns into a nightmare of violence. This is the lead Carabinieri officers at the Scampia station are following to explain the brutal beating of a 33-year-old man from Salerno, currently hospitalized at Cardarelli Hospital with injuries that testify to the ferocity of the gang.
The ambush and the injuries
The alarm was raised when the military arrived at the Naples hospital, alerted by paramedics to the arrival of a man with obvious signs of beating. The medical report leaves no room for interpretation: head trauma and multiple fractures to both wrists. A proper punishment, inflicted with such violence that it required prolonged hospitalization, although fortunately the victim's life is not in danger.
SIM card blackmail
According to an initial reconstruction, still being examined by investigators and awaiting objective evidence, the man was approached by three individuals in the heart of the Scampia neighborhood. Their request was clear: to use his documents to register fictitious SIM cards, a practice often used by criminals to shield illicit communications. When the 33-year-old refused, the argument quickly degenerated into a savage fight.
Full-scale investigations
The Carabinieri are working to clarify the exact circumstances and, above all, the nature of the attack. The details of the victim's account and the identities of the three attackers, who fled immediately after the raid, remain to be verified. Other avenues are currently being explored, but the focus remains on the management of the illegal underworld linked to front men in the neighborhood.
