Fire in Milan, the companion of Suoli Barbosa stopped: he is accused of murder

Was stopped on charges of aggravated voluntary murder and a malicious fire The companion of Suoli Barbosa, the 48 -year -old woman who died on the night between 4 and 5 June after throwing herself from the fourth floor of her apartment in Viale Abruzzi, in Milan, in an attempt to escape a fire. The measure, ordered by the prosecutor Maura Ripamonti, arrived at the end of a long interrogation at the police station.

The investigators’ hypothesis is that the 45 -year -old man, painter, compatriot of the victim, has set fire to fire In the home, where at that moment there was only Suei Barbosa. The ten -year -old son, born from a previous relationship, was from his father.

Some witnesses report a dispute between the two in the evening before the tragedy. The man was tracked down by the police in a bar not far from the home and accompanied to the police station to be listened to.

During the long interrogation, the man did not confess, and said he may have involuntarily caused the fire. The cameras, however, filmed him as he left the street just before the outbreak of the fire. The firefighters found the door closed with the only deck, since the man did not live there.

The Courier reports that, during the interrogation, man does not have “Manifested any form of pain or even less resipscence” and has reconstructed its version several times with “lies”from the “exit” time from the home, “to the absence of quarrels” with the woman, up to “in the presence of alternative causes” of the stake “such as the malfunction of the boiler, which in reality was regular”.

«We and I discussed, she was angry with me because she wanted me to reach her in bed instead of drinking, I got nervous, I smoked a cigarette and a moment before going out I threw it on the carpet who was in front of the sofa. She was a cleansing maniac, I just wanted to make her a spite, I didn’t think I would cause a fire. I specify that she cleaned the carpet and the sofa with alcohol and ammonia, “said the man.

From the inspection by the nia of the firefighters, «The presence of accelerating substances is combustion»In at least” two points of the house, that is, in the living room, near the entrance door, and in the bedroom “. The motive would be, we read, in “reasons of resentment”.

The alarm went off shortly after midnight, when “screaming thrust” woke the neighbors. Some of them attended the scene: the woman leaning out of the window, then the desperate jump in the void. The firefighters intervened within a few minutes. The woman was rescued and transported to the hospital in red code, but died shortly after.

“He asked for help, shouted, but when the firefighters arrived the flames were already high», He tells theHandle Maria Bono, neighbor, who lives on the upper floor. «When I pulled on the shutters, I saw the red sky, I heard the bang of the windows explode for the heat. I called my husband, who was sleeping, and ran away ». He adds: “If he didn’t wake me up, I wouldn’t be here.”

In addition to the rescuers, the scientific and the fire investigative nucleus of the firefighters intervened. The reliefs went on all afternoon. PM Ripamonti also participated in the inspection. “We concluded the first investigations: at the moment the situation is quite clear to us», He told theHandle Michele Giacalone, head of the Fire Investigative Unit of the Lombardy Regional Directorate. «The apartment is completely destroyed by the flames. There was a flashover», That is, a generalized fire that propagates very quickly. “Reading the signs was not of simple identification, but the situation is quite clear.”

When asked about the malicious origin of the fire, Giacalone replies with caution: «We have already understood it, but but We cannot say it because everything is in the hands of the judiciary».

Already months ago A violent discussion between Suoli and his partner would have requested the intervention of the police in the apartment, owned by the woman. “He didn’t deserve it. I I was constantly telling him when we felt: he leaves this man», Remember on the phone from Brazil, with the Courier, Geralda, the 83 -year -old mother of Suoli.

The death of Suoli has also shaken the Brazilian community in Italy. «She was a good woman, always ready to help others. His absence leaves an unbridgeable void, “said Elisangela Batista da Silva, president of the philanthropic association Bem. In a note we read: «We are tightening to the family, friends and the Brazilian community in Italy. We will support any solidarity initiative for the son and family members. Hi Suoli, that your soul finds peace ».

Now the investigation will have to clarify the responsibilities of his death definitively.
