(AGI) Genoa – Genoa Courts are to hold the first hearing in the trial against father Riccardo Seppia tomorrow. Seppia was arrested last May after he tried to entice a minor into having sex in exchange for cocaine. The priest is also accused of molesting an altar boy at his former parish in Sestri Ponente.

He is currently charged with multiple rape attempts, with offering drugs and attempting to prostitute a minor, and with possessing paedophile pornography.
