A court in the Sardinian city of
Sassari on Tuesday called on Premier Giorgia Meloni to testify
on July 2 in the trial of two people over pornographic videos
posted online in which her face was superimposed onto actresses'
bodies to make it look like she was involved.
Meloni is a civil plaintiff in the trial of two men, a father
and son aged 73 and 40, and has asked for damages of 100,000
euros.
If she is awarded the damages, the premier will donate the money
to an interior ministry fund for woman victims of violence, her
lawyer said.
The videos were posted on a US porn site, stayed online for
several months and were viewed millions of times by users from
around the world.
The older man has asked to do community service to close the
case against him and a judge will decide on the request next
week.
