"My partner and I were attacked for homophobia ... I got punched in the head ": this is what Ivano Cipollaro, a 45-year-old nurse, reported on social media. He was admitted to the San Paolo hospital in Milan last night after being attacked while walking with his partner Alfredo in via Santa Rita da Cascia , in the Barona neighborhood of Milan.
Luca Paladini, regional councilor of Lombardy for Patto Civico and friend of the couple, reconstructs what happened: "Often, very often, you read about it in the newspapers, this time it happened to a friend - he writes on social media - Last night, around midnight, he was returning home hand in hand with his partner . A small group of five Italian boys started to apostrophize them. "Are you really doing this?" "You suck" "Fr***s of m***" "You are against God and nature".
"Ivano, who I spoke to a few minutes ago on the phone, has just been released from the San Paolo hospital, for a punch he took and which contributed to raising his blood pressure in a worrying way. Ivano will file a complaint against unknown persons ," continues Paladini. Who concludes: "It is up to us to denounce an increasingly violent and discriminatory climate towards people in the LGBT community . A climate that someone fuels daily and which, on the contrary, is not unknown. A brotherly hug to Ivano and Alfredo."
