Horror on Bologna street. Asylum-seeker rapes a homeless woman
2 October 2023
The woman managed to ask for help from Carabinieri who rushed to the scene catching the foreigner in the act.

Shock in Bologna where a homeless woman was molested on the street by a young foreigner-asylum seeker of Moroccan nationality. The woman, in spite of the fear she felt in those terrible moments, found the strength to call for the police to help. The perpetrator is already in custody as ordered by the prosecutor's office.
What happened
The facts, according to what has been reported as of now, took place on the night of Saturday-Sunday. The victim, a homeless person of about 50 years of age, was under the arcades of via Giovanni Amendola when she was awakened in the middle of the night by the Moroccan who was lying near her. The young man was insisting that he wanted to have sex, but the woman rejected him, also refusing the 30 euros that he offered her. The situation became more and more dangerous, so much so that finally, around 2:30, the homeless woman called the Carabinieri at the Bologna Operations Center asking for help.
Two patrol cars were immediately dispatched, reaching the woman, and on arriving at the scene, the Carabinieri caught the North African in the act. He was still molesting the victim pinning her to the ground and groping her breast. Seeing the Carabinieri, the 50-year-old screamed, and the young man fled. One of the (Carabinieri) attended to the homeless woman while the other chased after the foreigner.
The care
Finally safe, the 50-year-old Bologna president told what happened explaining that the young man assaulted her while she was sleeping, insisting on having sexual relations. Not accepting her refusal, he attacked her with the clear intent to abuse her by force. The woman, visibly in shock, was assisted by emergency health workers, but refused the offer of going to the hospital, choosing to remain on the street. The homeless woman, in any case, received full assistance.
The arrest
As for the young man, he was captured shortly afterward as he was heading for the Bologna Central Train Station and identified. He is a 22-year-old Moroccan, residing in Granarolo Emilia (Bologna). It appears that the North African had requested international protection last May 2023. The (Carabinieri) arrested him for sexual violence and put him behind bars in jail as ordered by judicial authorities.
The latest attack
Unfortunately, this is just the latest sexual attack that has happened on the streets of Bologna. Just shortly before, in fact, a woman was molested in the university zone by two juvenile migrants.
