Germany has decided to hand over to Italy Rassoul Bissoultanov, the Chechen citizen accused of the murder that took place in front of a nightclub in Lloret de Mar in 2017

Germany accepted Italy’s extradition request and ready to deliver to Italy Rassoul Bissoultanov, the 26-year-old accused of the killer of Niccol Ciatti, the Italian who on 13 August 2017 was killed in Spain in front of a nightclub in Lloret de Mar. The Farnesina expresses great satisfaction with the decision of the German judicial authorities regarding the surrender of the Russian citizen of Chechen origin, the Farnesina said in a note. The Chechen was arrested in Germany on 3 August on the basis of a European arrest warrant. In Spain, on the other hand, he was released from prison on June 27 due to the expiry of the maximum terms of preventive detention. Bissoultanov would be the one who would have delivered the fatal kick to the boy in front of a club of Lloret De Mar, on the Costa Brava during an evening spent at the disco. Ciatti intervened that evening in 2017 to avoid a fight between his friends and the 3 Chechens accused of the beating. Fatal for Niccol, 22, was kicked in the head.

The father: Now the life sentence

his extradition is good news. I can’t say I’m happy, contentment is another thing, I can’t feel it in the midst of this tragedy, per se, the extradition of Bissoultanov to Italy a good news. He told this to Fanpage.it Luigi Ciatti, father of Niccol, commenting on the decision of Germany, it decided to hand over to the Italian authorities the Russian citizen of Chechen origin Rassoul Bissoultanov, held responsible for the murder of Niccol, which took place on 13 August 2017 in Spain. The surrender authorization follows a European arrest warrant, issued by the Rome Public Prosecutor’s Office in 2020. If we prefer Italy to Spain, or Germany? We would like the place where he can stay in prison longer, and we think this place could be Italy. Spain proved very bad, after four years they haven’t even started the trial, and Bissoultanov at the first opportunity in fact managed to escape, he explained. We hope for a very high sentence, we want a life sentence. You see, the killer has no intention of rehabilitating himself, but of escaping, he has already proved it. Not repentant, and the only right place to stay in prison, even as an example for others like him, he continued. I can’t forget the images of the football he launched at Niccol, already on the ground. I have in front of my eyes my son on the ground, and him who at that point strikes him that kick given to kill. I have that football in front of my eyes, always, it doesn’t go away. And do you know one last thing? I have thought so many times: if I could, I would have taken my son’s place, he concluded.
