Italy: Milan's Foreign Crime Wave Continues Unabated

Milan


In Milan, Italy's second-largest city, the immigrant crime wave continues. I lived in the city from 1982-1987, and while it always had its rough edges, it was never what it is now.

In the latest incident, two Egyptian males, ages 17 and 18, are in custody after allegedly groping a young girl at one of the city's metro stops. A third suspect is on the run.

The below article from today's Il Giornale, is translated by Fousesquawk.

Hell on the Milan metro: "Herd"  blocks (Metro), then the gropings. Two Egyptians in handcuffs

24 July 2023-14:29

Two Egyptians have been arrested for the groping of a girl on the Milan metro Sunday night: One is a minor.

By Francesca Galici

To understand what is the security situation in Milan, you just have to take a walk on the streets and realize the degradation into which the city administered by Beppe Sala has fallen. You can consider yourself lucky if you don't fall victim to a violent incident or a robbery, and if you are a woman, you can consider yourself lucky if you return home not being subjected to sexual harassment or even rapes. This is what Milan has become, whether day or night, not only in the peripheral zones but also in the city center.  At this point, to define it as an urban jungle is an understatement in how it has been transformed in recent years, also due to indiscriminate immigration, which has compromised the social fabric of the city. The latest incident relative to sexual crime occurred a few hours ago and has as its protagonist a young girl sexually harassed by two Egyptians at the entrance to the Dergano metro stop. 

The events occurred Sunday, 23 July, around 23:30. The victim, born 2002, was with a girlfriend and was approached by three foreigners, who groped her. Two of these, a 17-year-old and an 18-year-old, both Egyptians, were arrested by the police. The minor was taken to Beccaria (youth detention facility), and the other to San Vittore (prison). For them, the charge is violent group sexual violence. The three fled on foot immediately after (the assault), and while two were tracked down, also thanks to the alarm issued by the victim, the third managed, for the moment, to get away.

Intervening were the agents of the Comasina police station, who, at that moment, were patrolling in that area and rushed to the scene after the alarm, putting themselves immediately on the trail of the three men. The arrest was possible in very quick time also thanks to the accurate description furnished by the two girls, who, in those moments of such excitement, managed to gather details and particulars useful for the search. 

This case is added to all the other reports during the first 7 months of the year, but it is estimated that they are only a portion, probably about half, with respect to those that actually occurred. The majority of women, in fact, tend not to report the violence, much less the sexual harassment suffered; therefore, to have a precise estimate is not possible, but the numbers represent an emergency that is now undeniable, even if all too often, we tend to underestimate it.
