Sexual violence allegedly took place in the late afternoon of last Saturday in the center of L'Aquila, on a staircase of the arcades of San Bernardino, when many people were walking in the area.
This is what a fifteen-year-old denounced, accusing a peer of her age.
The girl's screams attracted the attention of a group of friends and the young alleged rapist risked lynching, was saved by the immediate intervention of the carabinieri and police.
The girl was transferred to the San Salvatore hospital, where doctors ascertained the violence.
The fifteen-year-old, arrested for long interrogation yesterday and then released as a suspect, claims that his coetenea was in agreement. The people present were also questioned, starting with the victim's friends, who said they had chased the alleged rapist, who was then taken away by the police officers.
The deputy prosecutor of the Prosecutor's Office for minors of the Abruzzo city, Lorenzo Maria Destro, coordinates the very delicate investigations.
