The well-known Italian rapper Amis Killa also spoke out on the case, who also drew attention to the deteriorating public safety on his social media page on Monday. In response to Enrico Letta, she noted that she was ashamed of the political leaders who attacked her because of the rape that had happened, but did not say a single word of solidarity to the victim, since on the left “they are afraid to face a critical situation in the field of public security, aggravated by massive illegal immigration.” Meloni’s ally, League leader Matteo Salvini, announced that if the right wins the elections, the number of police and gendarmerie will be increased by ten thousand people, cities will be monitored by surveillance cameras, and illegal migration will be stopped.
In turn, George Meloni said that the goals of the right include the elimination of urban crime and mass illegal immigration.
She added that the right is carrying out a general attack on migrants, while the nationality of the perpetrator does not matter. Cecilia D’Elia, representing the DP’s women’s youth section, said the Piacenza incident was being used by the right as political propaganda. He told the news channel Radio24 that he feared distortions in an election campaign that showed less and less respect for human rights. The general secretary of the left-wing Democratic Party (DP), Enrico Letta, called the release of the videotape unacceptable and undignified. The chairman of the Brothers of Italy party, George Meloni, immediately posted a video of the incident on the social network. The man was taken into custody, and the woman was taken to the hospital in a state of shock. Early Sunday morning in the center of Piacenza, a 55-year-old Ukrainian woman was attacked and raped by a 27-year-old Guinean migrant whose asylum application is pending. The right opposes migration, the left opposes racism due to a case of rape committed by an African migrant in Piacenza. The problem of crime among migrants is at the center of the Italian election campaign.
