(ANSA) - ROME, APR 27 - A Milan judge on Thursday found three young men guilty of cat-calling in one of Italy's first trials regarding comments of a sexually suggestive, threatening or derisive nature directed at someone in public.
    The three were all soldiers at the time of the incident in March 2021 in which they targetted a 19-year-old woman with repeated insults, although one has since left the Italian Army.
    They were handed suspended one-month jail terms.
    Their lawyers said they would appeal. (ANSA).
