Tomorrow the request for validation of the arrest for Youssef Sehir

The Milan prosecutor Francesca Crupi will tomorrow ask for the validation of the arrest for Youssef Sehir, the thirty-year-old researcher arrested yesterday on charges of terrorism, incitement to crime and organized violence in public demonstrations because he is believed to be the administrator of the Telegram chat and of the Movimento 17 October Instagram page. The investigating judge, having received the documents from the anti-terrorism section of the Prosecutor's Office, will set a date for the validation of the arrest.

The wife of Youssef Siher, the thirty-year-old arrested during the night after a long interrogation as part of the investigation by the Milan Prosecutor's Office into the demonstrations organized by the 17 October Movement, is also under investigation for incitement to commit a crime. The 32-year-old woman of Lebanese origins is being investigated in conjunction with her husband. According to investigators, both are administrators of the Instagram and Telegram pages of the movement that organized last week's street protests. It would have been thanks to the woman's cell phone that the investigators, on Saturday morning, managed to track down Siher, who instead had his phone turned off and could not be located. The 32-year-old, intercultural mediator, was born and raised in Como, where she is resident. On social media he defines himself as "Lebanese, Palestinian and Arab". The couple married last September and live in the province of Milan, despite their different registered residences: he in Mazzano, in the Brescia area, she in Como.
