Seven people ended up in handcuffs on charges of sexually abusing a young woman from Palermo last month
Seven young men were arrested in Palermo on charges of gang sexual desire. Among them also a minor. The fact dates back to last July 7 when the boys allegedly sexually abused a very young girl from Palermo. The girl, in a state of alcoholic intoxication, was taken to an isolated area of the city center and raped there in turn by some of the suspects.
Three of the alleged perpetrators ended up in handcuffs last August 3rd. Today the Carabinieri of the Operational Nucleus of the Palermo Piazza Verdi Company arrested four other young people, one of whom was a minor. The military carried out a precautionary custody order in prison issued by the investigating judge of Palermo and that of the Juvenile Court.
The investigations, conducted by the Carabinieri of the Operations Unit of the Piazza Verdi Company together with colleagues from the Brancaccio station, under the direction of the Prosecutor’s Office and the Prosecutor’s Office for minors, made it possible to collect a “serious circumstantial picture” against the seven arrested boys. “Today’s operation demonstrates how by finding the courage not to remain silent and asking for help from the police, we can adequately combat all forms of violence against women”, explained by the Provincial Command of the Carabinieri of Palermo.
