Police are currently investigating an incident involving Kanye West and his companion, Bianca Censori, during their recent vacation in Italy. The couple was captured on camera in a situation that has raised concerns among the public.
The controversy arose last week in the enchanting city of Venice when West was photographed exposing his bare buttocks while aboard a boat, with Bianca in a kneeling position in front of him. Additionally, images depicted the American rapper, aged 46, seated at the rear of a river taxi while Bianca, a 28-year-old Australian, had her head resting in his lap.
A source within the Venice police department emphasized the importance of adhering to public decorum standards for both tourists and locals. Any violations of these standards are subject to strict consequences.
The images of West with his trousers down, particularly while inside a taxi as he and his partner crossed the lagoon, have garnered significant global attention.
‘You could clearly see his trousers were half down and we have received complaints from people who witnessed it. Now we have identified the driver of the boat and we will be asking him what he saw as well.
“The images depict the couple engaging in an intimate act, and if the local prosecutor decides to file charges, we will inform the couple, most likely through their respective embassies.
The offense under investigation is acts contrary to public decency, which carries an administrative sanction as punishment.
Elisabetta Pesce, councillor for public security in Venice, expressed to MailOnline: ‘Without a doubt, what we witnessed from the couple showed a lack of respect for Venice, which is renowned as one of the most enchanting cities in the world.’
A source close to the city’s mayor, Luigi Brugnaro, stated: ‘The upcoming monthly meeting on public security will inevitably address this type of behavior. Venice is celebrated for its extraordinary beauty, and we expect tourists to maintain a high standard of decency during their visits.’
‘These public spectacles are not what we or the millions of tourists who visit here each year want to witness, and we strongly disapprove of such behavior,’ they added.
‘We can only hope that the prosecutor imposes a fine, prompting the couple to reflect on their actions if they choose to return to Venice in the future.’
A spokesperson for Venezia Turismo Motascafi, the company that owned the boat the couple was on, claimed to be ‘completely unaware’ of the incident. They further stated that had the boat’s driver noticed the public exposure, the couple would have been immediately disembarked and reported to the authorities.
The Italian rental company pointed out that the ‘third person on board the taxi,’ who was traveling with Ye and Ms. Censori, had obstructed the captain’s view to the back of the boat.
The company has since banned the couple from using their boats in the future, stating: ‘We entirely disassociate ourselves from such acts and behavior. Mr. West and his wife will no longer be welcome on board our company’s boats.'”
