A Family Division panel of the Court of Salerno has temporarily suspended in-person contact between a father and his three children after reviewing surveillance footage from a bar in Pastena, according to reporting by Il Mattino Salerno.

The footage came from cameras installed in a bar reportedly run by the couple. Thirty-seven episodes were entered into a judicial separation proceeding, the published account said.

According to that account, the court issued the temporary suspension after hearing both spouses and viewing the videos, with the protection of the children cited as the reason for the measure.

Alongside the suspension, the court ordered additional safeguards: the appointment of a special curator for the children, a report by social services, and a program of psychological support.

At the time of publication, the matter was described as a civil proceeding. The published account reported no criminal complaint by the woman and no criminal proceeding connected to the case.

The published account does not identify the family members and does not include the full text of the court order. The suspension is described as temporary, and no later outcome or conditions for any possible resumption of contact are documented in the source. The allegations and reconstructions reported do not amount to a definitive finding of criminal responsibility.
