An Egyptian man named “AF” committed suicide inside the “Torre del Gallo” prison in Milan, Italy, after he was detained on charges of sexually assaulting an 89-year-old elderly woman who suffers from a cognitive disability.

The incident dates back to last September, when the victim was going to the pharmacy to buy some medicine, and on her return, she met the accused, who offered to help her return home.

After they arrived home, the victim offered to wait for the accused and serve him a meal as an expression of her thanks for his chivalry, but he surprised her by sexually assaulting her, torturing her for more than an hour, and stealing her money.

Italian security investigations showed that biological samples at the crime scene matched the DNA of the accused, which led to his arrest on charges of sexual assault and theft.

The accused was scheduled to appear before the Monza court, where the Public Prosecutor’s Office demanded an immediate ruling based on the available evidence.

The incident caused great shock in Italian society, and questions about security procedures in prisons, after the accused managed to commit suicide before being brought to trial.
