Riddles in Ticino What does the dead woman in the lake have to do with a government councilor?

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. Following the release of the audio, the woman was attacked and injured at a location near where her body was later found. Authorities ruled out foul play based on autopsy results and concluded the cause of death was drowning. While some speculate a connection between the woman’s death and Zali, there is currently no proven link.
