NTR24's October 1, 2026 bulletin summarizes the day's main stories from Benevento and the Sannio: the verdict in the Paupisi double homicide, a Court of Auditors opinion on Sannio Acque, an opposition protest at Benevento City Council, and a clarification on paid-parking enforcement.
Life sentence in Paupisi double homicide
The Assize Court sentenced Salvatore Ocone to life imprisonment for the murders of his wife Elisa and son Cosimo in their home in Paupisi.
According to the bulletin, the victims were killed with a large stone. The verdict closes the first-instance proceedings roughly one year after the killings.
Negative Court of Auditors opinion on Sannio Acque
The Court of Auditors issued a negative opinion on the Municipality of Benevento's participation in Sannio Acque. As a result, a new corporate operation and a further municipal assessment will be required.
Opposition suspends participation in committee work
Benevento's council opposition announced that it will no longer attend council-committee meetings and conferences of group leaders. The protest cites transparency and institutional-respect concerns linked to the Santamaria investigation.
Municipal Police clarify blue-parking enforcement
The Municipal Police clarified the role of Bemobi parking attendants in paid-parking areas. Attendants may record violations in areas immediately adjacent to their assigned paid-parking spaces when illegal parking concretely obstructs access, exit, or manoeuvring.
The bulletin adds that each case must be assessed individually and that the attendants hold public-official status while performing these duties.
