There are three clear images. In the first, a man dressed in black with a hood and a shovel is seen. In the second we see three people walking far between one and the other. Finally a person with a bucket, a bag and another tool. This is what can be seen in the frame, released by the investigators, of the film shot around 19.30 on April 29 near the house of Saman Abbas, who disappeared the next day from Novellara, near Reggio Emilia. The girl had opposed an arranged marriage. According to the investigators, these images would nail the uncle of the Pakistani girl and two cousins, who perhaps, the conditional is still a must, were going to dig the grave to hide the body.



In Saman's case, his uncle Danish Hasnain, aged 33, believed to be the material author of the crime, two cousins ​​who are also seen in the video and his parents are being investigated. The three relatives and two parents did not return to Pakistan. One of the cousins ​​was arrested in France in recent days and is expected to be handed over to the Italian authorities. To make his uncle Danish Hasnain lose track.



The prosecutor of Reggio Emilia


"We think it is in Europe, there is a lot of collaboration from France, Spain, Switzerland. They have the names, they know who they should look for." Reggio Emilia prosecutor Isabella Chiesi said this, speaking of Saman Abbas's uncle, held responsible for the murder of the girl, whose remains have not yet been found. The uncle is wanted together with another cousin. For the one arrested last Sunday in Nimes, France and the day on which he will be handed over to Italy is still unknown. The prosecutor said that it is excluded that the three left with their own car. With respect to Saman's parents, Chiesi replied to a question from journalists saying that "no international cooperation activities have been carried out", or letters rogatory.



The discovery of Saman's body


Reggio Emilia prosecutor Isabella Chiesi is optimistic about the discovery of Saman's body in the fields of Novellara. Weather conditions permitting, starting tomorrow we will start with the use of an electromagnetometer. "I think - Chiesi said - that a month is a period that allows you to find" the remains with "tools that account for the discontinuity of the ground".
