Turin, they persecute their schoolmate and tear her nails. The fifteen-year-old complains
The complaint was not enough to stop the threats against him: it happened in Pinerolo, where one fifteen year old of Moroccan origin was repeatedly physically and verbally attacked by three Italians, all within walking distance of school.
There the first attack took place on 26 October, near the technical institute attended by the girls. The victim was walking with a compatriot friend of hers, chatting in Arabic, when she was joined by a schoolmate on a scooter who believed that the two of her were badmouthing her. After throwing the ball in her face, he allegedly slapped her and grabbed her hair and threw her to the ground; two friends of hers who came to support her, however, would have started to kicking her in the face and then ripping her nails out, the very long and decorated fake ones, but also the real ones. At that point the friend of the fifteen-year-old would have managed to push them away, but when the girl got up to go and catch the bus, the three would have chased her on a scooter while continuing to insult her. The threats then continued in the afternoon, with insults on Instagram: “Loser, I’ll continue as soon as you’re at school”.
Right after the attack the girl had gone to the emergency room to be treated, and the next day her parents had accompanied her to the officerecounting the facts as also reported in the complaint presented the same day to the Carabinieri, and to which he was Attached a video shot from yet another girl, still from the same school, with her cell phone.
Fifteen year old persecuted by her schoolmates, she reports, but the threats don’t stop
The complaint did not stop those responsible from perpetrating new threats: November 3, at schoolduring the interval, the victim met in the corridor the girl who had attacked her first and who continued to intimidate her: “You don’t get away with it with me.” And again, a few days later, on the 9th, upon leaving school, her again with other girls they blocked her way and prevented her from going home. Frightened, the fifteen-year-old called her parents and the Carabinieri, who however arrived at the place indicated when it was all over. She thought about the victim reconstructing what happened, revealing what she would have been told: “Come here, do you have a problem? We beat you if you have any problems”mocking her, sending her kisses with her mouth and “mimicking the gesture of turning her neck” since the girl was wearing the collar for the previous attack.
The victim’s family turned to the lawyer Raffaele Folino, who immediately informed the juvenile prosecutor’s office, led by Emma Avezzù. The girl has now been summoned together with a psychologist by the judicial police. “It’s about a brave little girl – comments Folino – not only because he immediately denounced, but also because he never stopped going to school, despite experiencing the severe stress that this violence is causing her. Regardless of the responsibilities for the attack, which will be ascertained, we trust that the principal and teachers will take measures to protect her from further episodes of bullying”.
