A Torino, venerdì scorso, si è verificato un episodio drammatico e violento che ha coinvolto due donne, entrambe vittime di aggressioni sessuali da parte di un uomo straniero. Secondo quanto riferito dalle autorità locali, l’incidente si è sviluppato intorno alle ore 17.00 nella zona del Quadrilatero, precisamente in via Santa Chiara, una via centrale della città. L’aggressore, un cittadino nordafricano, ha inizialmente colpito una studentessa universitaria di origine francese, spingendola contro un muro e palpeggiandola con insistenza. La vittima, pur essendo oggetto di attenzioni inappropriate, ha riuscito a chiamare l’aiuto di alcuni passanti, tra cui un uomo che lavora in un negozio di abbigliamento. Quest’ultimo ha contribuito a mettere in fuga l’aggressore, accogliendo la ragazza nel suo esercizio commerciale.
Tuttavia, l’episodio non si è concluso qui. Dopo pochi minuti, l’uomo ha ripreso la sua azione violenta, questa volta rivolgendosi a una turista russa di 33 anni. L’aggressione è stata ancora più brutale: l’uomo ha preso a pugni la donna all’addome e in viso, trascinandola nel cortile di un palazzo. La 33enne è stata ulteriormente picchiata e palpeggiata, con l’aggressore che sembrava avere l’intenzione di compiere un abuso sessuale. Le grida disperate della vittima hanno attirato l’attenzione di altri passanti, che hanno provveduto a intervenire in suo soccorso. L’uomo, però, ha rubato il cellulare della donna e si è dato alla fuga.
Gli agenti della Squadra Volante di Torino sono stati allertati dai testimoni e hanno iniziato le ricerche dell’aggressore. L’uomo è stato individuato e catturato tra piazza Emanuele Filiberto e via Sant’Agostino. Nell’atto di arresto, l’individuo era in uno stato di alterazione psicofisica. È stato quindi arrestato con l’accusa di violenza sessuale e rapina. Attualmente, l’uomo è in custodia presso un carcere torinese, a disposizione degli inquirenti.
Le vittime hanno fornito dichiarazioni dettagliate sui fatti. La seconda vittima, la turista russa, ha raccontato: "Continuavo a gridare e quando le persone sono arrivate in cortile lui è scappato". Queste parole testimoniano l’intensità dell’esperienza traumatica attraversata dalle donne. L’episodio ha suscitato preoccupazione e indignazione tra i residenti e i cittadini torinesi, che hanno espresso solidarietà verso le vittime e condanna nei confronti dell’aggressore.
L’episodio di Torino rappresenta solo un caso tra tanti di violenze sessuali e aggressioni da parte di uomini stranieri. A Palermo, poco tempo fa, un altro episodio simile ha visto una donna di 30 anni aggredita e abusata sessualmente da un cittadino gambiano poco dopo aver assistito a un evento musicale. Anche in quel caso, l’aggressore è stato arrestato grazie alle denunce della vittima e all’intervento delle forze dell’ordine. Questi casi evidenziano la necessità di maggiore vigilanza e prevenzione, nonché di supporto alle vittime di tali crimini.
