The death of a 52-year-old woman found drowned in Lake Lugano has sparked speculation in Ticino, Switzerland. The woman was a friend of Claudio Zali, a member of the Ticino regional government affiliated with the Lega party. She had secretly recorded a controversial personal phone conversation between herself and Zali, which she later shared on social media. This contributed to Zali’s resignation by the end of September. In the recording, Zali advised the woman to physically attack someone stalking her, claiming he had done so before.
