The violence and cruelty of a rampage at a university in Italy has shocked the student community. According to The Guardian, the perpetrator is believed to be the victim’s former partner, bringing attention to the issue of violence against women in a country where an average of three women are killed every three days. The victim, 22-year-old engineering student Giulia Chatatainini, was found dead in a canal near Venice shortly after her graduation ceremony. It is reported that she suffered multiple injuries, including stab wounds.

The incident took place during a week-long search effort that spanned the entire country. Surveillance cameras captured the victim’s disappearance and ultimately led to the discovery of her body. It is alleged that Chatatainini had planned to meet with her former partner, Filippo Turatti.

Turatti, who was arrested in Eastern Germany for vandalizing a car, is now facing extradition to Italy. Once back in Italy, he will be detained and interrogated by the investigating judge.

In response to the tragedy, demonstrations have been held in Italy to remember the 21 feminicides that have occurred in the country so far this year, including the loss of Chatatainini.
