Placebo lead singer Brian Molko has
been put under investigation by criminal prosecutors in Turin
over insults he directed at Premier Giorgia Meloni during a
concert near the northern Italian city last week, sources said.
The 50-year-old is being probed for the felony of holding the
public institutions in contempt after he called Meloni a
fascist, a racist and a "piece of shit" at Stupinigi on July 11
at a show that was staged as part of Sonic Park festival.
The Turin prosecutors opened the probe after Carabinieri police
reported the incident, the sources said.
