A 40-year-old Moroccan citizen has been arrested by Carabinieri police on attempted murder charges for allegedly attacking his 38-year-old ex with a hammer, investigative sources said on Wednesday.
    The man has been detained on aggravated attempted murder charges, the sources explained.
    The victim, who is also Moroccan but has been residing in the area of Mantua for a long time with her two children, aged 11 and 9, is in a critical condition after her ex-partner allegedly hit her with the hammer 10 times on the head.
    She underwent emergency surgery but is still in a life-threatening condition, medical sources said.
    The victim was attacked on Monday although the incident was made public only Wednesday.
    She was rescued by a delivery man who called an ambulance after she called for help from her home in the town of Roncoferrato near Mantua.
    Before undergoing a complex neurological procedure, she told Carabinieri police in hospital that she had been attacked by her ex-partner.
    According to investigative sources, a number of witnesses have seen the man leaving his former partner's home after the attack.
    The man, who has a criminal record for abuse and violence, had been recently reported to the authorities by the woman for stalking after he had tried to break into her home.
    She had installed a video surveillance camera outside her apartment, which her ex tried to destroy, investigative sources said.
    Traces of blood were also found in the man's home after it was searched by investigators, per the sources.
    The case is the latest in an alarming spate of attacks against women in Italy.
