The little one came out of intensive care and resumed playing in Pediatrics. The 29-year-old parent is accused of injuries as a result of another crime
SASSARI. The eighteen-month-old baby who arrived at the hospital in very serious condition after accidentally taking heroin, probably found at his parents’ home, began playing in the playground of the Pediatrics ward. The therapy based on Narcan, the antidote that counteracts the effect of opiates, has allowed a recovery of the child’s condition that the next few days, as soon as the doctors deem it possible, could go home. Meanwhile, in the investigation opened by the Public Prosecutor’s Office after the foiled tragedy, as was to be expected, the father of the child, a 29-year-old Nigerian defended by the lawyer Carlo Pinna Parpaglia, ended up. The deputy prosecutor Ermanno Cattaneo challenges him with the crime of “injury as a consequence of another crime”, which in this case is the transfer of drugs.
During the search of the apartment where the child’s parents live, in the residential district of Cappuccini, the investigators of the mobile team had not found traces of heroin, but only a small dose of very few grams of marijuana. Meanwhile, the investigations of the investigators of the mobile team continue, coordinated by the manager Dario Mongiovì, to reconstruct the whole story in detail and understand where and when the child ingested the heroin. The parents had been heard a few days ago and had declared that the little boy would have picked up the packet of heroin from the ground while he was playing in a city park last Thursday. Then back home, the child would be put to bed by the mother who hours later, unable to awaken him, had transported him to the hospital. A version that does not convince investigators.
The most corroborated hypothesis, in fact, remains that the little one ingested the drug while he was at home, even if no traces of the substance found in the child’s body were found in the house, during a thorough police search. However, a check was made the day after the hospital doctors reported that last Thursday they informed the police of the hospitalization of the overdosed child. © breaking latest news
