Killed and set on fire to try to erase all traces. Horror in a villa in Casale Monferrato, in the Alessandria area, where the police found the charred body of Pietro Beccuti, called Paolo, 61 years old. The man shared the house on Strada San Giorgio Miglietta, in the area between Salita Sant’Anna and Cascina Serniola, with his wife, from whom he was separated. Willful murder and the destruction of bodies are the crimes for which his 23-year-old son, Guglielmo, was arrested overnight. The young man confessed at the end of the flash investigation coordinated by the Vercelli prosecutor, Pier Luigi Pianta.
