The investigation by the Prosecutor's Office of Milan is expanding to include two more agents from the Mecenate police station, in which chief assistant Carmelo Cinturrino is under investigation.

In prison for the murder of Abderrahim Mansouri, who was killed on January 26 in the Rogoredo grove during an anti-drug operation.

The new registrations, one of which is for forgery against a policewoman, are related to the request for preliminary evidence notified in recent hours to summon at least eight witnesses, including pushers and drug addicts, in order to solidify their accounts.

Among the new accusations, there is also one of illegal arrest. The number of those under investigation, including Cinturrino, rises to seven.

The request for preliminary evidence notified in recent hours contains some shocking statements regarding the threats that

Carmelo Cinturrino allegedly directed at the victim.

"Either I arrest you or I kill you", "tell Zack that if I catch him, I will kill him", "make sure to remind Zack that if I catch him, I will kill him", the chief assistant allegedly said either directly or through two presumed consumers, to Abderrahim 'Zack' Mansouri, the 28-year-old Moroccan who died in the Rogoredo woods and who was reportedly killed by a shot from Cinturrino's service pistol, a Beretta, during an operation to combat drug trafficking.

This morning in Milan, at the scientific police laboratories of the Police Headquarters, technical investigations began on a wooden bat and a hammer in search of biological traces as part of the investigation into Cinturrino. The investigations are necessary following accounts of beatings by some pushers and dealers, some of whom are the subject of a request for preliminary evidence to "solidify" their accounts.
