SARONNO – “Truly an unthinkable tragedy, they were such a peaceful family. Never a scream, never an argument. If I hadn’t seen the police here all morning, I wouldn’t have believed it.” The residents of the building on Via Fratelli Cervi are dismayed, where this morning, Monday, January 8th, the lifeless bodies of 81-year-old Teresa Sartori and her 54-year-old son Stefano Rotondi were found. Mother and son lived in an apartment on the fourth floor of the buildings at the end of Via Fratelli Cervi, at number 27, on the outskirts of the Matteotti neighborhood.
A very reserved and absolutely polite family: that’s how the neighbors describe them, incredulous. “I can’t think of a single argument between them or with the other tenants. They were kind people, we greeted each other on the stairs and talked about the weather.” Stefano worked as a skilled worker in a company in Caronno Pertusella. He spent his free time in the center of Saronno with acquaintances and friends. He was often seen on Corso Italia: “He was very methodical – they remember – he always left on his motorcycle at the same time and on the same days.”
The police immediately alerted the sister, who is coming from Veneto where she lives with her family. After all, the mother was originally from that area. Teresa Sartori had been having some health problems for some time, but she had kept the illness strictly confidential. “We didn’t know she was sick, we saw her less often lately, but no one thought that such a kind and polite lady could become the victim of such a tragedy.”
The carabinieri of the Saronno company intervened after a neighbor found the lifeless body of the woman in her own bedroom and that of the man hanged in the same room. The house was examined by the investigative unit of the provincial carabinieri command in Varese. The judicial authority has ordered an autopsy on the two bodies to determine the causes of death and the exact time.
