June 29, 2021The field of searches for the body of Saman Abbas, the 18-year-old Pakistani who disappeared two months ago from Novellara in the Bassa Reggiana, widens. Investigators think the young woman was killed for saying no to an arranged marriage by her parents in Pakistan, and then buried. While the watermelon greenhouses continue to be sifted near the farm where the 18-year-old's relatives worked, the Guastalla carabinieri are starting to widen their range of action behind the collapsed house, about a kilometer from the farm. In particular, the focus is on a small forest that in these hours the Arma soldiers are fighting together with the canine unit of the Carabinieri nucleus of Bologna.At the same time, searches for Saman's body are continuing in these days, always in the area near the farm.

In particular, we are continuing with the drilling and coring of all the greenhouses and areas not yet explored which, on the basis of the evidence collected, could have been used as a place to conceal the corpse. This morning, the results of the activities carried out with the electromagnetometer - the scanner capable of sounding the ground in depth - will also be analyzed, which will continue to be used in greenhouses and in areas still to be inspected. For the disappearance of Saman, the parents are being investigated, who fled to Pakistan according to the accusatory framework, the uncle - he is thought to be fleeing to Europe - and two cousins, one of whom in prison. 

Pain and indignation for the tragedy of Saman Abbas. This is what the Regional Commission for Equal Opportunities of Tuscany expresses, which met in recent days and produced a document in which it takes a position on the terrible affair and indicates the actions to prevent and combat the growing gender-based violence, which too often leads to in femicides.

`` The case of Saman is unfortunately not isolated and is the result of a patriarchal system which, within every culture and society, takes on different connotations but has the same matrix: male domination over women '', reads the document. '' Forced marriage is a gender-based violence and a violation of human rights, as are any act that transforms women into objects, into a property of which the man (many times a family member, father, husband, partner, friend ) thinks he can decide by disposing of their bodies and their lives, especially when they affirm autonomy and freedom of choice. The numbers and cases of femicide, updated daily by the femicidioitalia.info site, tell us that no culture is exempt ''.
