Stalking and Unwanted Gifts: A Legal Guide

Stalking is a complex and often underestimated phenomenon that can manifest in multiple forms, including the sending of unwanted gifts. These gestures, seemingly harmless, can turn into a true persecution, causing serious distress and fear to the victim.

What is Stalking?

According to Italian law, stalking is a crime consisting of a series of repeated behaviors, such as following, threats, harassment, and intrusive communications, that cause the victim to experience fear and anxiety. The sending of unwanted gifts fits perfectly into this definition when such acts are part of a plan of control or intimidation.

Unwanted Gifts as a Tool of Stalking

  • Persistence: The continuous sending of gifts, despite clear rejection from the victim, can be considered an act of persecution.
  • Intent: Sending gifts with malicious intent, such as an attempt at control or manipulation, is a distinctive sign of stalking.
  • Effect on the Victim: Unwanted gifts can generate anxiety, fear, and discomfort, compromising the tranquility of daily life.
"Stalking is not just a crime, but a violation of personal freedom."

How to Take Legal Action

If you are a victim of stalking through unwanted gifts, it is essential to act promptly. Here are some crucial steps to follow:

  • Documentation: Keep all possible evidence, such as letters, messages, and the gifts themselves.
  • Report: File a report with the competent authorities. This is an essential step to initiate legal proceedings.
  • Legal Assistance: Contact a criminal lawyer experienced in stalking for advice and legal support.
