The crime of stalking, governed by Article 612-bis of the Italian penal code, is an illegal conduct that manifests through persecutory acts aimed at undermining the serenity and freedom of a person. This crime materializes when an individual, through repeated behaviors, causes the victim to experience anxiety, fear, or a well-founded concern for their own safety.
The penalty for the crime of stalking varies depending on the severity of the actions and the consequences for the victim. Generally, the sanction consists of imprisonment from six months to five years. However, in the presence of aggravating circumstances, such as the use of weapons or committing the act against a minor, the penalty may be increased.
"The prosecutability of the crime of stalking is ex officio if the act is committed by a person already warned or if aggravating circumstances are present."
Condominium stalking is a subtle form of persecution that occurs within the shared spaces of a condominium. Actions such as threats, verbal or visual harassment, and obstructive behaviors can constitute condominium stalking. These acts not only compromise domestic peace but can also evolve into situations of serious psychological distress for the victims.
