"He emptied the magazine on the Albanians who entered his house"/

Italy continues to be divided after the incident that occurred on the night of September 19-20 in Baldissero d'Alba, where Roberto Mollo opened fire on a group of thieves, emptying almost the entire magazine of his gun and killing 36-year-old Albanian Gjovalin Lazri.

As investigations focus on the dynamics of the shooting, Italian media have published new details about the Albanian's life and the final hours before the tragedy.

According to the hypothesis that investigators are working on, Gjovalin Lazri may not have been shot near the house where the group had entered, but at the moment when he was leaving with the other people, about 30 to 40 meters from the property.

This is precisely why autopsy and ballistics expertise are considered crucial.

Who was Gjovalin Lazri?

Gjovalin Lazri was 36 years old and had lived in Turin for many years. He lived in the Barriera di Milano neighborhood, in the north of the city, with his partner and their young son.

For about two years, he and his partner had been running a bar on Corso Taranto. She also worked in a tattoo parlor. For those who knew them, the couple's life revolved around home, work, and their young son.

The most complete profile of his double life has been published by La Stampa. 

To the neighbors he was simply "Gio".

"They are quiet people," says a resident of the building where they lived. "We saw them coming in and out with the child. They didn't talk much, but we never had any problems with them."

No one answers the apartment door anymore. The family has closed in on themselves in silence.

The same atmosphere is present near the bar he managed. The shutters are down, the veranda tables are not set up, and there is no sign of activity.

The bar's customers have a hard time connecting the man they knew with the Baldissero d'Alba incident.

"The last time I saw him was Saturday morning. The bar was still open," recalls one customer.

"I'm sorry. I didn't know he was into these things. It seems strange to me that he would have broken into someone else's house."

Another adds:

"I didn't believe he was a man with a history. I would go there sometimes for coffee. I never expected it."

It is precisely this contrast between his daily life and the events of the night of September 20 that La Stampa describes as the "double life" of the Albanian.

Criminal precedents and the quest for a new life

Italian media reports that Lazri had a history of crimes against property.

According to La Stampa, in 2013 he was involved in a theft at a villa in the Asti area, a detail that had not been widely reported in Albania until now.

However, the family's lawyer, Roberta Sisimbro, insists that those episodes belonged to the past.

According to her, Lazri had changed his life, was working regularly and had increased his activity in Turin.

"He was trying to reintegrate," is the message conveyed by the lawyer.

What happened on the night of September 20th?

The incident began between 02:00 and 02:30. Roberto Mollo, a 35-year-old transporter, had been sleeping in his house under reconstruction in Baldissero d'Alba for several nights. The reason was simple. He was afraid that someone might steal the construction materials that were on the site.

His property contained tiles, cement, tools and other materials. That night, four or five people entered the property. The suspicion is that the group had gone to take the construction materials and sell them later.

Italian media describe the group as a possible gang of "trasfertistas", meaning people who move from one area to another to commit thefts. According to Mollo's statements, he heard noises, went out onto the first-floor balcony and started screaming.

Investigators believe the screams forced the thieves who were on the property to flee with all four of them. 

But a few seconds later, the 35-year-old took out his 9-millimeter Beretta pistol and opened fire on them. 

It wasn't just a few shots, he almost emptied the entire magazine. 

According to La Repubblica, he fired 13 of the 15 rounds he had in the magazine, leaving only two bullets in the gun.

The doubt that could change the whole case

The point on which investigators are now focusing is the position of Gjovalin Lazri at the moment he was shot.

According to La Repubblica, at least one bullet hit him between the neck and shoulder when he was about 30 meters from the balcony from where Mollo allegedly shot.

La Stampa also reports that investigations are working on the scenario according to which the group was leaving the property and Lazri was hit from a distance of about 40 meters.

Two wounds were found on his body in the area between the neck and shoulder.

If the autopsy and ballistics expertise confirm that the 36-year-old was on the run at the time he was shot, this element will be important in the legal assessment of the case, as investigators must determine whether there was still a real threat to the homeowner at that moment.

What does Roberto Mollo say?

The 35-year-old insists he had no intention of killing anyone.

According to Corriere della Sera, he told investigators and family members that he was awakened by noises, was frightened and shot in the dark.

His version is that he did not target anyone and that he only intended to scare the people who had entered the property.

His lawyer, Pier Mario Morra, states that his client was in a panic.

"He's not a man who goes out to shoot. He didn't want to kill anyone."

After the shooting, it was Mollo himself who called the emergency number 112 and reported that there were people on his property and that one of them was lying on the ground.

Why is he being investigated for intentional homicide?

Roberto Mollo has been registered as a person under investigation for intentional homicide.

This development has sparked debate in Italy, but the Asti Prosecutor's Office has clarified that it is a procedural step.

Prosecutor Biagio Mazzeo explained that registration is necessary to carry out all investigative acts and expertise with the guarantees provided by law and does not constitute a declaration of guilt.

He also added that the procedure used when it is immediately clear that a person acted in lawful self-defense could not be applied at this stage, as this has not yet been proven.

The autopsy is expected to provide key answers.

The autopsy will be performed on Wednesday, September 23, at 09:00 at the Institute of Forensic Medicine in Turin.

Experts will determine how many bullets hit Lazri, their trajectory, the distance from which they were fired, and his position at the moment of impact.

It will also be verified whether the wounds are consistent with the hypothesis that he was leaving the property when he was shot.

Along with ballistics expertise, the autopsy is considered the key element that can clarify the full dynamics of the event.

Lazri Family: We are not seeking revenge

While the investigation continues, Gjovalin Lazri's family has chosen not to make public accusations.

Through lawyer Roberta Sisimbro, their message was that they do not seek revenge, but "only for justice to do its job."

The lawyer says that the family is experiencing a deep tragedy and only asks for respect for the mourning they are going through.

"These are difficult and complex hours for the family. We await the developments of the investigations and communications from the Prosecution. We have only filed the representation acts. We have not yet received any notices for the rest. Of course, an autopsy will be performed and we await the results."

Sisimbro also recalls that Italy is a country of law and that the case must be handled on the basis of the law and the evidence that will emerge from the investigation.

She adds that, despite past precedents, Lazri was trying to reintegrate, was working regularly and had built his life in Turin.

The people who were with Lazri still remain a mystery.

Another important element of the investigation is the identification of the people who were with Gjovalin Lazri on the night of the incident.

They have not yet been identified.

Prosecutor Biagio Mazzeo has stated that the Carabinieri are continuing their investigations and that there is a "reasonable probability" that they will be able to identify them.

At the moment it remains unclear who the people accompanying the 36-year-old Albanian were, how they arrived in Baldissero d'Alba, what exactly they were doing on the property and what they saw at the moment when the shots were heard.

The answers to these questions, along with the autopsy and ballistics expertise, are expected to shed light on an event that continues to cause debate in Italy and that centers on the death of a 36-year-old Albanian, whose life, according to people who knew him, seemed completely different from what emerged after the night of September 20.
