The Murderer by Luca Esposito: "I wanted to stop prostitution, it was distracting us from Islam"

Ridha Ramouni, accused of murdering journalist Luca Esposito, claims he killed him to stop him from engaging in prostitution, which he believed distracted from prayer. The investigation into the murder includes evidence such as phone records placing both men in the same area during the time of the crime, fingerprints on the victim’s car, and personal items belonging to Esposito found in Ramouni’s temporary residence. Authorities are also looking into whether other young North African men were approached by Esposito for similar encounters. Additionally, there are reports suggesting that Esposito may have had an undisclosed homosexual orientation, which could have influenced his behavior.
