A 22-year-old man suspected in the attempted homicide at the Wikka venue in Benevento's Parco De Mita is back in Benevento prison, shortly after his release following a ruling by the Tribunal of Review.
Prosecutors in Benevento ordered a new detention measure against him for suspected attempted murder and illegal possession or carrying of a firearm. The suspect was transferred again to Benevento prison, where he remained available to judicial authorities pending a hearing to validate the detention.
Release Over Procedural Defect, Then a New Fermo
The young man had been released after the Tribunal of Review identified a procedural defect in the earlier custody measure. Local reporting described the issue in general terms as a notification problem.
The release did not end the case. The Mobile police unit then carried out a new detention decree issued by the public prosecutor, taking the suspect back into custody.
The outcome and timing of the hearing to validate the new detention were not reported in the available sources.
The Shooting on 27 August
The case concerns a shooting reported on 27 August 2026 inside the Wikka venue at Parco De Mita.
According to the reports, at least two shots were allegedly fired at close range, and a young man was struck in the left hand.
What the Investigation Cites
Investigators cite several lines of inquiry, including witness interviews, forensic examinations, ballistic evidence and interceptions.
Those investigative activities form the basis cited for the allegations of attempted murder and the firearms allegation now contained in the new detention measure.
What Happens Next
The immediate next step is the validation hearing for the new detention order. No result from that hearing was available at the time of reporting.
The allegations remain subject to judicial proceedings, and no final determination of criminal responsibility has been established. The description of the earlier procedural defect also remains limited to the general terms reported, without a complete procedural record.
