Police have arrested an
Italian man on suspicion of sexually assaulting a young asylum
seeker from Gambia at Termini Imerese station in Sicily, reports
said Tuesday.
The Gambian national, 18, had been granted permission to
leave the Asylum Seeker Reception Center (CARA) at Mineo to
visit a fellow countryman in the town near Palermo.
On arriving at the station, he was allegedly propositioned
by the suspect, 23, before being abused.
The youth managed to free himself not without difficulty
and asked a motorist for help.
Forensic police have reportedly found biological traces in
the station waiting room that could confirm the aggression.
