Police hunt for “Arab and African men” after teenage girl is found dead in Rome




The body of a 16-year-old Italian girl has been found dead in an derelict building in Rome and according to a witness she was drugged and raped by “Arab and African” men before dying.

The girl named as Desiree Mariottini was found in San Lorenzo, a university area known for nightlife, drinking and drug use.

Italian media reports that a witness, a boy from Senegal, told police that he saw “African and Arab men” drugging the girl and that she may have died while they were raping her.

This was because he saw another woman who was there at the time and was screaming that she was dead while the migrant men continued to sexually assault her.

Italian police have appealed for witnesses and as of yet the cause of death has not been determined.

Italy has seen a spike in anti-social behaviour, crime, and violence in the past number of years as hundreds of thousands of young men from North and Sub-Saharan Africa have arrived in the country after crossing the Mediterranean.
