The case against the Forza Italia senator has been dismissed: "The complaint for alleged sexual assault was filed too late."

The Rome prosecutor's office has requested the dismissal of the sexual assault case against Forza Italia Senator Francesco Silvestro, who suspended himself from the party after being accused of raping a woman in his office . The decision was apparently made due to a "late complaint." This was announced by Teresa Manente, head of the legal department at Differenza Donna and the victim's representative, who emphasized that "the request for dismissal is based exclusively on a question relating to the admissibility of the crime" and that "it does not contradict, on the merits, the woman's account."
