The victim of the Piacenza rape that became a political case , heard by investigators, said she was "desperate" and "regretted" because someone who saw the video circulated on the web recognized her .

Social media and online platforms have removed the video, shared by Giorgia Meloni among others. And the Public Prosecutor of Piacenza investigates the dissemination of the video, assuming the crime of disclosure of the identity or image of a person offended by acts of sexual violence: investigations are delegated to the Postal Police and kidnappings have been notified to some media.

The victim, a 55-year-old Ukrainian, was attacked by a 27-year-old Guinean on Sunday at dawn in via Scalabrini.

The images were shot from the balcony by a resident, the same one who gave the alarm and who has been heard in these hours about the spread of the film. Seizures were notified to Libero, Stopcensura, Rassegna Italia and Voxnews , while the removal request concerns Google, Yahoo, Meta, Bing and Twitter.

The controversy against Giorgia Meloni - who shared the video with the faces obscured like most of the newspapers, but in which the screams of the victim are clearly heard - does not stop.

Debora Serracchiani speaks of " unjustifiable barbarism ": "Giorgia Meloni has performed a very serious act by passing over, for propaganda purposes, the dignity of this person. The fact that she does not feel the duty at least to apologize, to acknowledge the mistake actually made leaves you stunned ".

"Dear Giorgia, you who intervened to post that video and brought all your visibility, you are a woman, you are a mother, you are a Christian, but you did not think for a moment that that woman could be your mother, your sister, your daughter ", the attack by Giuseppe Conte, who said he was" horrified "by the spread of the video.

Meloni for his part relaunches: " I have no reason to apologize , if not for having expressed solidarity, publishing a video totally obscured and published by a newspaper. Have you asked your fellow journalists why they published it? I am very attentive to these issues, not is it strange that I am much more discussed than the rapist? ".

For the suspect, Sekou Souware, in Italy since 2014, the arrest with custody in prison was validated. His words (" I wanted to help the woman ") are denied by the statements of the victim and by the same video that also captures the bloodiest phases of the attack .
