A Gambian citizen was arrested on suspicion of giving up heroin on the evening of the death of Libero De Rienzo, found lifeless on the evening of July 15 in his apartment in the Madonna del Riposo area of Rome.
The investigations began after the discovery of heroin in the actor’s apartment. The investigations, starting from the shop environment, led to the Torre Angela district, south-west of the capital, where the carabinieri arrested the drug dealer. The man was seized an additional 7.7 grams of heroin, a discovery that led to the arrest for detention for the purpose of trafficking in his fellow countryman. The Gambian citizen was charged with a solid circumstantial framework that demonstrated his daily dealing activity carried out mainly “at home” using the metro lines to move quickly between the various areas of Rome. The investigations, made up of testimonies and technical activities, made it possible to acquire circumstantial elements on the fact that it was the Gambian drug dealer who gave the dose of heroin to De Rienzo. On the causes of the death of the protagonist of “Fortapasc”, the magistrates of piazzale Clodio, who have initiated proceedings for death as a consequence of another crime on the matter, are awaiting the results of the toxicological tests carried out as part of the autopsy activity.
