Four Padua youths, aged 19 to 21, filed a 12-page complaint with Milan prosecutors on Monday, 19 October, charging threats and personal injury against Fedez and his bodyguards.
According to the complaint, a bodyguard punched the 19-year-old in the face and others kicked him until he lost consciousness for a few seconds outside The Club on corso Garibaldi.
Fedez's lawyers, Gabriele Minniti and Andrea Petrolucci, say he only reacted to an assault by intoxicated young men and took part in no beating.
The 19-year-old was discharged from the Policlinico with a four-day prognosis and his 21-year-old brother with a three-day prognosis.
The complaint describes a night out in Milan that ended in an emergency room. Four friends from Padua, two brothers aged 19 and 21 (one outlet gives the older brother's age as 20) and two of their friends, had travelled to the city to celebrate a friend about to leave for Australia. They had hoped to meet the rapper Artie 5ive, who was reported to be at The Club on corso Garibaldi, but outside the venue they came across Fedez, who was marking his 37th birthday and was surrounded by bodyguards. The brothers asked for a selfie while a third friend filmed from a short distance. According to the group, the rapper answered with a warning: "Dai che altrimenti va a finire male." One of the brothers replied that he was right, and the group walked away.
The complaint says the episode did not end there. Fedez allegedly told his bodyguards to follow the group, and one of them reportedly went up to the 19-year-old, warned him that staying would mean getting hit, and punched him in the face. Other guards then kicked him until he lost consciousness for a few seconds, and the complaint places at least four bodyguards at the scene. When his friends asked the guards to stop, one reportedly answered that they were right but that he could do nothing about it. The 19-year-old is said to have suffered a cut to the upper right forehead and bruises to his left cheekbone and right temple.
Police patrols and an ambulance reached the entrance around 5am, but by then the rapper and his bodyguards had already left. One account gives the emergency number as 112, while another reports calls to 113 between 5.06 and 5.16 am. The ambulance took the 19-year-old, who had lost consciousness, to the Policlinico, where he was discharged with a prognosis of four days. His 21-year-old brother was treated there and sent home with a prognosis of three days, and one account says a witness helped him at the scene. The two friends were examined the following day in Padua.

The 12-page complaint was filed on Monday, 19 October, with the Milan prosecutor's office, charging threats and personal injury against Fedez and his bodyguards. Lawyers Alberto Berardi, Giuseppe Lombardino and Paolo Tabasso, of the Padua bar, represent the four young men. Videos attached to the filing are said by the complainants to show the rapper and his bodyguards during the sequence. Fedez's lawyers, Gabriele Minniti and Andrea Petrolucci, say he only reacted to an assault by young men who appeared clearly intoxicated and took part in no beating. None of the articles report a decision or statement from prosecutors, so the account of the scene rests on the complainants' version and the defence's counter-version.
