Naples. A turning point is imminent in the identification of the young gang that stabbed a 17-year-old boy on Saturday night. Ponticelli in the Galleria Umberto I. One of the eight alleged attackers who surrounded the victim reportedly posted a video on TikTok in which he boasts of feeling proud when "I scare you."
A misstep that could allow investigators - whose sights are on some very young people from Marianella - to reconstruct the dynamics of what happened. The video was removed from the platform after the leak, but by then it was too late.
"We believe the attackers' hours are numbered at this point. Francesco's mother and I urged them to get back on their feet, but they didn't. It would be better for them to hand themselves over to law enforcement of their own free will, otherwise it will be worse, since they'll be caught anyway," commented Francesco Emilio Borrelli, MP for the Green-Left alliance, who had already reported the incident and offered his support to the victim's mother.
“We need to ask ourselves a question: can our kids, the good ones, who study, work, respect the rules, continue to live in this climate of terror and be subjugated by those who make violence their creed, their obsession, so much so that it is a source of pride on social media?
Something, that is, a lot, must change. Re-education, this is the watchword. To do this: interventions on the families of violent boys, much more severe penalties, reform of the laws and contrast to the mentality of silence that is killing Naples”.
