Une malheureuse femme septuagénaire italienne maintenue prisonnière par son époux pendande 50 ans (depuis leur mariage en 1958), a réussi à alerter les médecins sur sa détresse lors d'une visite avec son mari à l'hôpital de Val di Non en Italie. Elle a expliqué aux médecins que son époux l'empêchait de sortir de la maison, de voir la télé ou d'aller voir ses deux enfants. Pourquoi? Par jalousie. L'époux serait extrêmement jaloux.
Les médecins ont alors prévenu les autorités, et le vieux cinglé a été chassé de la maison par la police et a été amené dans une endroit gardé en attendant qu'il soit jugé.
Woman kept prisoner at home by her own husband for 50 years
The wife was only allowed out of the house when accompanied by him, and was not allowed to speak with anyone else.
She raised the alarm when she was admitted to a hospital at Trento, a few miles from her home in the nearby Val di Non in northern Italy, for heart trouble.
She told doctors that her jealous husband had kept her a prisoner in their home virtually since the day they married in 1958.
The couple, who were not identified, are both in their seventies and are believed to have two grown-up children.
He locked her inside the house when he went out, and would not even let her watch the television.
A police spokesman said: "Once the hospital informed us of the woman's story we acted immediately and informed the local prosecutor.
"It appears that the woman was kept a virtual prisoner in her own home for 50 years. She was only allowed out when her husband was with her and if he went out on his own he would lock all the doors and windows.
"At 5pm when he came back he would lock the place down, She was not even allowed to see her children and they were not allowed to visit.
"The TV was also forbidden and there were also times when he would beat her.
"It's a very sad story and the woman's life has been made a misery by her husband – if it wasn't for the fact she was admitted to hospital and bravely decided to speak out her ordeal would have continued."
Trento prosecutor Fabio Biasi requested an order for the man to be removed from his house and taken to secure accommodation while the investigation continued.
