An 84-year-old woman was in serious
condition in hospital Monday after being savagely beaten in her
Palermo home Sunday night, sources said.
The woman was reportedly set upon by a group of angry
labourers after she accused them of stealing a purse during
recent work in her home, sources said.
She had surgery including the amputation of a finger Monday.
One of the labourers has been arrested.
