Police in southern Italy have
arrested an 18-year-old
Nigerian boy on suspicion of
murdering a 60-year-old
Catherine Susca outside the
coastal city of Bari. Catherine
was found semi-Unclad with a
plastic bag over her head and
her skull crushed in her
apartment in Torre a Mare.
According to investigations, the
death of Catherine Susca was
caused by the beating she
received in the course of the
attack, suffocation with a
plastic bag dropped on her
head and strangulation with a
scarf.
The Nigerian boy, Donald
Nwajiobi, who lives in Bari but
homeless, confessed he killed
the woman in self defense after
she attacked him with a pair of
scissors and he also claimed to
have acted alone. However,
investigators will verify whether
there were accomplices.
Donald said he had met the
victim at Torre a Mare on the
morning of the incident and
asked her for food; the lady
who was in the car asked him
to follow her home with a
promise to give him something
to eat.
The police think once in the
house, Donald tried to steal
from the woman and was
caught in the act, which would
have led the 60 year old
woman into trying to chase him
out of her house with a pair of
scissors, but Donald attacked
her and suffocated her with a
plastic bag after beating her up.
Some money was stolen from
the deceased plus a mobile
phone with which he was
tracked down by the police.
Donald was remanded in prison
after the judge, Sergio Di Paola,
ruled that he could be
dangerous to free him on bail
for he could kill again and
probably flee.
