A 21-year-old Italian university student arrested for sexual violence in Siena, who this morning, returning from a nightclub, abused a Spanish girl who was traveling with him and other young people on a shuttle bus that connects the club, located in Monteroni d'Arbia, with the city of the Palio. The incident, the carabinieri reported, happened at about 4 o'clock. A group of twenty-year-olds traveled on two vehicles, all off-site students and all Spaniards except two. At the end of a night spent at the disco they were returning to their homes. According to reports, the 21-year-old abused a Spanish girl in a minibus while she was sleeping. The young foreign student didn't notice anything.
It was her friends who saw the 21-year-old's illicit attitudes and, alarmed, screamed until the victim of violence woke up. There was a commotion on board, the young woman and other friends called the carabinieri who then intervened in Siena and blocked the 21-year-old before he escaped. Now the student, also an Italian university student and off-site, is under house arrest at the disposal of the judicial authorities. The Spanish student also lives in the city of the Palio for a study stay with which she follows an Erasmus program. Together with friends and student friends, she had decided to spend the evening in the disco in Monteroni, a town a few kilometers from Siena, on the Cassia. The restaurant is very popular in the Sienese area and among the customers there are also university students who stay in the city,not just patrons of the area. To facilitate the night movements from Siena to the disco, and back, there are shuttles. The sexual violence would have occurred right on board one of these vehicles while the party of Spaniards was returning to the city towards dawn.
