Carabinieri from the Pignataro Maggiore station arrested a 62-year-old man from Pastorano (Caserta) yesterday afternoon, April 19, for domestic abuse. The arrest was made following a complaint filed that morning by his wife at the Carabinieri headquarters.
The woman reported that, the previous evening, at the height of an argument, her husband had insulted her, hit her, and threatened her with a glass bottle. The police, who promptly intervened, conducted investigations and ordered the precautionary seizure of the suspect's legally owned weapons: a semi-automatic pistol and a hunting rifle, both of which had been properly registered.
After the formalities were completed, the man was taken to the Naples Poggioreale prison, by order of the judicial authorities. The operation was carried out under the "Red Code," the law that accelerates protections for victims of domestic and gender-based violence.

I read the article and it seemed like a complicated situation. The woman reported the crime this morning and then the police carried out checks and seized the weapons. However, it is not clear how the fight went and whether there are witnesses or written evidence. The man was taken to prison in Naples-Poggioreale, but the legal procedure should be respected and the rights of the accused should also be respected.
