Although he was already under house arrest for a first instance sentence for stalking, he continued to threaten the former partner through messages and intimidation via social media. For this reason, a thirty year old from Messina was arrested and transferred to prison, in execution of a precautionary measure ordered by the Court of Appeal of Messina at the request of the General Prosecutor. To execute the provision were the agents of the Messina State Police.
According to what was reconstructed by the steering wheels, the man would have assumed a repeatedly threatening and persecutory behavior, despite the restrictive measure of house arrest.

In light of the evidentiary framework presented, the Court of Appeal decided for an unexpectedment of the precautionary measure, arranging the custody in prison.
