Rome prosecutors have opened a probe
after an Italian woman was killed and her husband injured during
an attack at their Kenya home on Sunday morning.
Maria Laura Satta, 71, and Luigi Scassellati, 72, from
Cremona, were attacked by machete at their villa in Kikambala, a
tourist resort 20 km less than from Mombasa.
Scassellati is not reportedly in critical condition and is
receiving hospital treatment in the Kenyan port city.
The couple are the owners of Seted, a company specialising in
office equipment.
They were reportedly found in the villa by a friend.
Rome prosecutors, working in collaboration with the foreign
ministry, have prepared international warrants to obtain
evidence for the investigation.
