Comedian-cum-politician Beppe Grillo,
the founder of the 5-Star Movement (M5S), on Monday denied that
his son was a rapist.
Griilo's son Ciro is reportedly close to being indicted along
with three other young men for the alleged gang rape of a
then.19-year-old woman in Sardinia in 2019.
"My son is in all the newspapers depicted as a serial rapist
along with three other youngsters," Grillo said in a video on
Facebook.
"I really want to ask why a group of serial rapists have not
been arrested.
"The law says that they should be taken, put in prison and
interrogated.
"They have been free for two years. I would have kicked their
butts to the jail.
"So why haven't you arrested them?
"Because you have realised that none of it is true, nothing
happened, because it seemed strange to you that someone who gets
raped reports it eight days later.
"If you haven't arrested my son, then arrest me so that I go to
prison".
