Ferdinando Conca arrested in Ostia for stalking and abuse

Ferdinando Conca, a 44-year-old man previously convicted of the 2003 murder of his girlfriend Silvia Napoli, has been arrested in Ostia for stalking and domestic abuse.

Following his release from prison in 2014, Conca allegedly engaged in a systematic escalation of physical and psychological violence against a new partner. Investigators report instances of physical assault, including hitting the woman in the chest and striking her in the head with a pan, as well as threatening her with a knife.

After the victim ended the relationship in May, the persecution intensified. Conca reportedly subjected her to constant phone calls containing death threats and published intimidating videos on TikTok. Following an order from judge Emanuela Attura, police apprehended Conca while he was walking his dog. He has been transferred to Rebibbia prison.
