A group of school bullies made a
classmate dance naked in the street in front of a girl while
they were waiting for the bus to take them home in the Sicilian
city of Ragusa recently, police said Thursday.
They then posted a video of what they had done on social
media.
The victim complained to a teacher who called police, who
identified the bullies and subjected them to a tough questioning
session after which they broke down in tears and apologies,
police said.
Episodes of bullying across Italy have claimed headlines
recently and authorities have vowed to clamp down on the
phenomenon.
Pope Francis admonished students never to take part in or
allow bullying during a visit to Milan last Saturday.
