Overview
- The 30-year-old victim, Anna Aksamit, says she was followed, surrounded and attacked on Friday in Via Livenza near Porta Romana, suffering punches to the face and abdomen and a badly swollen right eye.
- A group of roughly six to eight young men drinking beer are accused of attempting a sexual assault, though the victim reports trauma has blurred clear facial details and no suspects have been identified publicly.
- A single passerby intervened, fought with the group and chased them off, and the victim says she wants to meet or thank him but does not know his name.
- Aksamit spent the night shaken and crying, and with lawyer Domenico Musicco has said she will file a formal complaint in the coming hours; there are no reported arrests as of the latest coverage.
- The case highlights limits on identifying perpetrators after group street attacks and could prompt police follow-up, evidence collection and public calls for better street safety in the Porta Romana area.
