The Baby Gang trapper does not go to hearing, 'beaten in prison'

The trapper Baby Gang, 25 years old born Zaccaria Mouhib, did not show up today at the hearing in Lecco for one of his trials because the young man told his defender that he had been "beaten up in prison".

His lawyer, the lawyer Niccolò Vecchioni, brought this to the attention of the judge, who acquired a medical report from the Busto Arsizio prison (Varese) which, as explained by the defence, noted "signs of beatings reported by the prisoner". The singer is on trial in short, before the magistrate Salvatore Catalano, together with his friend and trapper Simba La Rue, aka Lamine Saida, for the possession of a submachine gun shown in the video of a song by Baby Gang, in which Simba also took part. In the last hearing, prosecutor Chiara Stoppioni asked for a sentence of two years and four months for Baby Gang and one year and eight months for Simba La Rue.

The 25-year-old attended the hearing via video link from prison. The hearing was dedicated to defense interventions, while the sentence is scheduled for January. The trapper was arrested again on March 17 in another investigation by the Lecco Prosecutor's Office into accusations of possession of weapons and other crimes which was closed in recent months. On November 13th at the Milan Review, the defense's request for the granting of house arrest in a therapeutic community, with an electronic bracelet, for a "psychiatric disorder" and for "drug abuse" will be discussed.
