In Catania, Sicily, seven teenage migrants from Egypt were arrested after a 13-year-old girl was gang raped in front of her boyfriend in a municipal garden.

The attackers threatened and assaulted the couple, with some holding down the victims while others carried out the assault.

Despite the victims’ screams, no one intervened. The police quickly identified the attackers using surveillance footage and descriptions from the victims.

“I want to express my solidarity with her and her family. The state will be there and justice will be done,” Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni said.

The incident has led to political outrage in Italy, with calls for harsh punishment, including chemical castration for rapists and increased security measures.

This case is not an isolated incident, as similar instances involving foreign minor migrants committing sexual violence against native Italians have been reported in the past.

“Don’t come and talk to me about ‘tolerance’ or ‘error’. In the face of horrors of this kind, there can be no clemency but only one cure: chemical castration. I’m counting on the proposal presented by the League to be voted on as soon as possible,” Deputy Prime Minister Matteo Salvini said.

“We remain firm in the idea that chemical castration is needed for rapists and paedophiles, life imprisonment for similar episodes, as well as greater security in our cities. For the foreigners repatriated immediately!” Italian MEP Annalisa Tardino said.

“In Egypt, they would never have allowed such behaviour. The safety of our children must be a priority throughout Italy.”
