Ignazio La Russa intervenes on the story of the son under investigation

“After questioning him for a long time, I am certain that my son Leonardo has not committed any criminally relevant act. I am counting on the Public Prosecutor’s Office in which, in my long professional career, I have always placed my trust, to clarify as quickly as possible to dispel any doubt”. The president of the Senate says, Ignatius LaRussaafter the news of the investigation against the son Leonard Apache19, accused of sexual assault.

He adds that he addressed a “strong reprimand” to his son for “bringing into our house a girl with whom he didn’t have a consolidated relationship” and declares: “I don’t feel like making any further reproach to him”. Instead, he claims to have “many questions” about the girl’s story: “By his own admission, he had consumed cocaine before meeting my son. An episode of which Leonardo was unaware. A substance that I am sure Leonardo himself never consumed in his life ”. And he also disputes the complaint “presented – says Ignazio La Russa – after forty days by the drafting lawyer who, I quote verbatim from the newspaper that reports it, takes up this time to piece together the facts”.

The complaint against Leonardo Apache was filed by a 22-year-old girl, who said that she met the young man during an evening in a Milanese disco last May 18, that she had two drinks with him and then that she woke up naked in bed with him in the La Russa house. The girl told the investigators that she was sure that this was the home of the president of the Senate because at a certain point Ignazio La Russa had overlooked her and, seeing her in her bed, had gone away. The Milan prosecutor’s office is investigating the case.
