A 40-year-old Italian office
worker was arrested near Monza Tuesday for domestic abuse
against his wife and daughter.
The man reportedly flew into a rage over an "inappropriate"
selfie the girl posted on Instagram at the weekend.
He allegedly kicked her, punched her in the face and cut her
fingernails and tore out a belly-button piercing with a pair of
shears.
He allegedly also beat up his 40-year-old wife who had tried
to defend the girl.
The girl went to school on Monday having trued to cover up
the signs of the violence but the man ordered his wife to go and
get her back and then beat her again, with sticks, the police
said.
The mother fled to a friend's home and called the police.
