The Swiss crypto trader wanted for questioning in the horrific torture of an Italian bitcoin dealer inside a posh SoHo townhouse turned himself in to cops Tuesday — after living it up in the Hamptons over the holiday weekend, law enforcement sources told The Post.
The Euro exec became a person of interest in the gruesome case after Italian crypto millionaire Michael Valentino Teofrasto Carturan broke free from his captors on Friday and tipped off the cops.
The alleged accomplice, who is not being identified by The Post because he has not been officially charged, turned himself in around 7:30 a.m. Tuesday, sources said.
Police previously moved in and busted Kentucky crypto king John Woeltz, who was charged with torturing Carturan for more than a week in order to pry his bitcoin password from him.
Cops also arrested Woeltz’s assistant, Beatrice Folchi, but the 24-year-old beauty was cut loose by the Manhattan DA’s office, which declined to prosecute her pending further investigation.
The Swiss national who surrendered Tuesday was the last remaining alleged culprit being sought.
Woeltz, a crypto dealer with a private jet and chopper and worth in excess of $100 million, allegedly masterminded the sick scheme, which included pistol-whipping Carturan, cutting him with a chainsaw and urinating on him while they held him captive, sources said.
Carturan was taken to Bellevue Hospital for treatment after his rescue.
Woeltz was arraigned on kidnapping, unlawful imprisonment, assault and weapons possession charges on Saturday and is now being held without bail at Rikers Island.
Police have not said what his alleged role may have been in the crimes, if any.
