(ANSA) – ROME, JAN 17 – The supreme Court of Cassation on Friday upheld a life term for Nigerian pusher Innocent Oseghale for the murder and rape 18-year-old Roman woman Pamela Mastropietro outside Macerata in Marche in January 2018 and the dismemberment of her corpse.
The defence lawyers of Oseghale, 36, had filed an extraordinary appeal to exclude the charge of sexual violence from the conviction, due to alleged errors during the proceedings, and to annul the life-imprisonment sentence.
But the Cassation judges said Friday that they have rejected the appeal.
Mastropietro’s murder prompted a rightwing militant, Luca Traini, to shoot and wound six African migrants in a drive-by ‘revenge’ shooting in Macerata days later.
He was sentenced to 12 years in jail for that in March 2021.
