CCTV Shows Suspect Approached Aurora Livoli on Milan Metro Platform Before Her Death

The case has sharpened scrutiny of failed expulsions, including a medical ruling that kept him out of a repatriation center.

Overview

  • Investigators say new footage places Emilio Gabriel Valdez Velazco with Livoli on the Cimiano platform minutes after a separate assault, before the pair walk to the courtyard where she was later found.
  • Prosecutors plan to question the 57-year-old this week, while he remains jailed for the earlier metro attack that the 19-year-old victim reported and identified on video.
  • Valdez acknowledged being the man in the metro footage and, through his lawyer, claimed he was under the influence of drugs during that assault.
  • Preliminary autopsy findings indicate injuries consistent with manual strangulation, and investigators report signs suggesting the victim tried to defend herself.
  • Authorities detail prior convictions and cases tied to Valdez and confirm that two expulsion orders were not executed due to an expired passport and a medical certificate deeming him unfit for CPR detention.
