Milan Judge Orders Baby Gang Held After Clandestine Pistol Seized

The ruling follows searches in a Lecco investigation that found an unidentifiable handgun, with the judge citing a very high risk of reoffending tied to weapons.

Overview

  • Investigating judge Fiammetta Modica validated the arrest and ordered pre-trial detention at San Vittore.
  • Carabinieri searches tied to a Lecco probe found a pistol with the serial number removed in a Milan aparthotel kitchen, plus small amounts of drugs and cash, and two more guns at his home in Calolziocorte.
  • Baby Gang, 24, represented by lawyer Niccolò Vecchioni, faces allegations of possessing a clandestine weapon and receiving stolen goods.
  • In his interrogation he claimed the gun was for self-defence and possibly a modified blank-firing replica and said props for videos come from a Naples supplier, a version the judge called absolutely implausible.
  • The court referenced his prior special-surveillance order and a one-night hotel permit to perform in Assago, finding he ignored restrictions and posed a very high risk of reoffending.
