A group of armed bandits on Tuesday
night robbed the Milan studios of the local youth music and
meme-producing duo Il Pagante.
One of the founders of the company, 29-year-old Bocconi
University educated Guglielmo Panzera, was tied by his wrists
with an electrical tie along with five employees by two masked
robbers who were armed with a knife and a starting pistol,
police said.
The pair forced one of those held to hand over a Tudor watch
worth several thousand euros and another to give them his
backpack, police said.
The staff called the police when they managed to free
themselves.
Il Pagante, originally a trio, was formed on Facebook in 2010
with the aim of recounting the quirky lifestyles of cool young
Milanese.
